Room was clean and well equipped. Staff are wonderful. I was worried that the in town location meant noise but this was not a problem. The town settles down early, by 830 so it is quiet.

Helpful staff, central location, nice pool area. Adequate complementary breakfast. But room and balcony somewhat dated and basic for price. Only 2 channels on TV. Good Wifi

10/10 Exceptional

This is a friendly, well run, clean, quiet home away from home. Chef standard food is superb - always a great bar and restaurant experience. It’s been an absolute delight to keep returning here year after year. Locals also appreciate it as the best place in town to gather for family and work functions - this is a great tick of approval from a seasoned traveller. Business can also be conducted with good office backup from the front desk - always with a willing smile.

The people and staff were caring and considerate. The only problem was, a couple of nights i had no water until about 5:30 am. If i used the bathroom in the night i could not wash my hands.
Verified review

6/10 Good

It was okay. Nothing to get excited about.

The hotel is basic. The main building has a nice pool (cold) and bar area. The rooms are functional but has wear and tear, and a little run down. The beds are comfortable. It was ok for the price. The area is not the best, I would recommend staying out near a beach or with a family if you want better accessible sites. The restaurant was great when you could get the options. Supply options seem to be an issues as they were out of things, sometimes almost everything. For comparison, this would be a hotel you would pay 10-20$ for in Asia.

The "Tú" as is refered to, was a great experience. The staff service, kidness and attention to detail went over my expectations. The food was pretty good and the beds really comfy. Next time in Santo I will definitely book again.

We had no WiFi in our stay which was very frustrating, and there was also not hot water for our showers. We expect more from a hotel of this standard. The staff were great and lovely! And it’s located right in the centre of town.
