I was out all day Saturday, the room was not cleaned all day, only dirty (used towels) was available. I was served tea in a cracked cup two separate occasions, all was reported at the desk.

Staff was courteous and friendly. The food was very good. Beach is lovely. The property itself is a bit run down, but management is making an effort to improve this condition.

We thank you for your feedback and yes, we are indeed going to be doing some renovations on the property to make the aesthetics of the rooms better for our guests.

Staff was great, service for meals very good. You get what you pay for but that maybe because l heard that the hotel had been brought out by a larger hotel chain and the staff were going to be out off a job in April. Room was okay , shower was great plenty of hot water, bed comfortable, sheets clean, tv outdated but I hardly watched it. Location is great, close to shops, entertainment and on the beach.

You get what you pay for.

The hotel location is ideal however the hotel is in need of upgrades. AC works but is old and musty. Staff seemed unfamiliar with the hotel's amenities. Great coffee, stale pastries. Would stay again after the recommended improvements.

A good value if you're not looking for an all-inclsuive resort

Pros: Free breakfast, Quiet, right on the beach
Nice place, right on the beach. Older hotel, but well maintained. Friendly staff. Continental breakfast is very basic, but for a little extra you can get a nice omelette or French toast.

The hotel was adequate. The location was great.

Pros: Free breakfast, Close restaurants, Free Internet, Quiet
Pros - Location of hotel is excellent. Within walking distance to Main Street. Security was great. They were really on the ball. Pool lifeguards were excellent. They kept the pool and the surrounding areas extremely clean. Maids kept our room very clean. The beach was extremely well kept. The almond trees kept us very comfortable. Cons - Mold on curtains in our room. I have pictures of the mold as proof. The servers in the dining room were not pleasant. They never smiled, never said thank you for a tip, and made me feel like I was putting them out when I asked for something. (This would have to be my biggest complaint). Not happy with American Airlines at all. Three of our four flights were late. Flight attendents were very nice though.

It is a nice hotel in need of minor maintenance and some upgrades.

Pros: Close restaurants, staff was friendly, plenty of security at the hotel
Cons: Poor breakfast, internet was very unstable, workout center had no air and not even a breeze.
I would only recommend this place for a quick budget stay. There is not much to do at the hotel. It is right off the beach. The pool is only 31/2 feet deep to my surprise. The workout room had no a/c at all. The bathtubs were cracked and the water as well as the "free internet" was extremely unstable. The hotel staff ended up friendly as the week went on. It is near stores and restaurants but the native Jamaicans can be overbearing trying to sell products. Lastly the onsite restaurant never changed its menu and there was not much of a variety to choose from. All in all my son and I made the best of the Jamaican trip. If you want the experience to be a good one travel expecting to spend lots of cash.
