It serves our needs
I chose this hotel due to its location and it is close to the pier where most of our activities happen so it serves our needs.
It also provides breakfast so we save some dine out expenses.

Stay Away
Stay away from this property.
Though there was nothing overly wrong with the property, there was certainly nothing right about the property.
You can find better accommodations at a cheaper price within walking distance of this property.

Fantastic!
The overall experience at the hotel was good. Everything was really good and the food. The service clerk was so kind and helpful. I would only suggest to make it a little bit faster when receiving refunds or payments back to one's personal debit card and maybe to have transportation to airport to hotel.Thank you!

Comfortable, clean, quiet, convenient to restaurants and shops. Friendly check-in; called in advance and requested early check-in - they said they’d do their best to accommodate- and they did - was able to get keys to room a couple hours before official check in time. They also have locked luggage storage room for guests.

Had a very nice stay!
I really enjoyed this hotel! The staff were very friendly and the breakfast is good. My only suggestion is that they get carpet in the rooms - I could hear the people upstairs walking around all of the time loudly. I had an issue with my first room and the staff was very nice and helped me get a new room. The pool is also very refreshing when it’s hot! I highly recommend staying here.
