The room was very comfortable and clean. The patio area had a wonderful view of the ocean and foliage. It was a nice quiet setting after a long day of exploring the island. I will definitely be back on my next visit to the island.

"There was a medium size cockroach inside the bathing tub and it was very stubborn to get rid of it. The front office lady blabbered something in her own accent was very hard to follow. Parking was a nightmare. You should know some gymnastics and know how to come out of the car after you parked in the tight spot. It's highly possible your car will get stuck and damaged. Good thing is it's nearer to the airport and restaurants. "
