For one night it will do. The pool area is nice, the shower was warm, the room was cool, and the bed was comfortable. The staff are rude and don’t communicate. They just stare and wait for you to speak to them. The front desk woman didn’t greet/welcome me, she just asked for my passport. She don’t tell me anything about the hotel, where anything was in the area or anything. The rooms need major updating for the price. The sofa was dingy and stained. The toliet was broken but operable. There were no wash rags, just two dingy towels. The area is very close to restaurants and the beach across the street, but it’s full of locals and stray dogs. It doesn’t look too safe after dark. Definitely I’m leasing pictures. If you just need a place to sleep and won’t be in your room or the area it will get the job done.

The room smelled bad. The bed skirt,the bed decor, and the walls were filthy dirty! We visited a week which included Easter weekend. The beaches were packed with the locals camping and partying on most of the beaches. The bar directly across from the hotel is where huge parties took place every night. Also, this hotel is on the main drag so it was very noisy! The hotel definately needs some upkeep repairs. The saving grace was that the food was good and the employees were very nice. We were very disappointed in Expedia's description of the place and didnt know why they would offer a stay here.

There is a great beach across the road, staff were great, it was really nice to have the pool. For the most part we had a nice 21 days there. Not the Hotels fault but the extremely annoying and loud bikes that show up at the bars / park across the street every Friday / Saturday / Sunday night till very very late at night revving their engines and doing burnouts. Not good for the Hotels business.

The hotel is small and easy to navigate. The best part of the trip were the 2 ladies in the bar area. Very friendly and service oriented. The downfall was housekeeping and management in general. Our entire stay we had do not disturb on our room door, yet, housekeeping entered our room to put towels in the bathroom. Nothing else done, just the towels. When i brought it to management, he was helpful but only said he would let housekeeping know about it. You want to know your secure when out of the room. It just raised a red flag. The in hotel convenience store listed hours of 8am-8pm but was rarely ever open and always closed by 5pm.They also had many interns working the front desk without supervision and not muck knowledge or know where to look for an answer. I can let that slide because we've all been at that point in our lives. When you book a hotel of this class, you really do get what you paid for. Atleast Aruba is checked from our bucket list.

Terribly noisy. Unfortunately, the hotel location stands on a noisy road, with locals parked across the road chatting through the night and listening to very loud music from their car's speakers (especially at weekends). We had booked a superior room that despite the space had no real superior feeling - pretty basic tbh. Sometimes we were handed out tired beach towels, faded colours, not fluffy. It is fair to say the hotel needs a revamp from top to bottom. Staff are nice and genuinely do what they can. The pool area is okay, a bit small so at busy periods it could be crowded and perhaps even not enough loungers for everyone (ps it was not the case for us as we travelled outside peak times).
