First off there was not a working phone in the room therefore anytime we needed something we had to go downstairs to the front desk. We were told it was because of some work being done and the phones were dodwn. Likewise, the TV didn't work. On Saturday night around 10 PM someone had to come up and try to get the TV working. This took 1/2 hour and he ended up calling someone. After he came back it took another 15 min. to get it working. By then it was time to go to sleep. Also no clock! The shower had a weak stream and the shower handle was loose so we had to work with it to get the right temperature. I mentioned it to the front desk and I was told no one was available to fix it until Sunday. Sunday came and went and it still wasn't fixed. We also put in a wake up call for 3 AM as we had to get ready for the taxi who was coming at 4:30 AM to take us to the airport. At 4:15 someone knocked on the door to tell us the taxi was there and he said he was told the wake up call was for 4:30. We went on vacation to destress only to be more stressed.

The staff is a 10 and by far the best asset of this property. Breakfast was amazing, however if you are late getting t breakfast you may miss the local meal which is like a dinner in the morning. Breakfast is highly recommended. The property is off the main strip and can be noisy at times. I would stay here again because of the staf and the breakfast

Love!!!

I booked this for 3 nights, location was great, Marcia was amazing. Most of the staff minus one girl was so nice and helpful. Quiet, pool was good, its shaped weird and i scraped my elbow lol. Food was good, better drink selection than some of the other hotels. View is great, across from a public beach, so you didnt have to pay to access it. Starbucks, burger king, KFC, Juixy patties, ice cream, casino, margarita ville, night clubs, all within walking distance.

front desk staff could be more transparent about their check in delay. At 3pm we were told to wait 5min for our room to be ready but ended up waiting over 1h. Staff said they were fully booked the night before but there was practically no one around. They were getting some IT work done at the time, and needed access to the rooms. They could of been more transparent and accommodating about that. All we wanted to do was unpack our stuff to enjoy our last day in Jamaica.

Value for price paid. The location was convenient for our business trip and for dining options.The room had sufficient amenities. Having a larger table and bedside mats would be appreciated. The bathroom facilities were in good working condition and quite easy to maneuver. Will consider future stays.

I feel for the price you get what you pay for and more. The only things I think need to be addressed is the cleaning of the pool needs to be done more often and safety to who comes in and out of the property could be better. Overall though I was pleasantly surprised and I would stay there again due to the location. It was noisy but if you want quiet you shouldnt stay on the stripe.

The location was the key for us, it’s near the beach and close to our favorite restaurant. What I didn’t like was that while paying for the package they said that if we add $8 more we would have access to the spa. Upon arrival there were no spa and the hotel was not aware of such transaction, and said we have to contact Expedia regarding same. There was only an independent shop that you have to pay separately for a manicure or pedicure. Now Expedia is giving us the runaround and won’t give us back our $8. So if you are book, please don’t be fooled by Expedia.

Hotel is located on a very busy noisy street. It's across the street from a public beach (with lots of garbage) but crossing the street is hazardous. It's walking distance to the hip strip, Doctor's Cave Beach There's always loud music from the spa or the bar next door so be sure to bring ear plugs. We didn't have any hot water for the first 2 days of our stay. I would have appreciated the staff to inform us of the issue at check-in. No compensation was given for the situation. Even once resolved, the water pressure was low. Most staff members are pleasant and friendly but a few appear to be annoyed at the presence of guests. Be sure to securely close lock your room door and use the in-room safe. A man tried to come into our room while we were there, when confronted he said he had the wrong room.. but an instant later asked if I could 'help him'. He then roamed elsewhere and sat in the lounge area. When informed of his presence, the hotel staff escorted him out. The room was small and could use some freshen up. The bathroom door didn't close completely and we had to remind the staff a few times to bring us clean towels after they took away the dirty ones. The included breakfast is convenient, basic and rather small.
