It was good for the price. Pros: Nice pool but a tad small, AC was phenomenal, staff was friendly and helpful for the most part, restaurant on site, the showers had the power of Atlantis itself supplying the water pressure, convenient location (close to church, shops, groceries, restaurants, the beach, etc.) Cons: Wifi only worked in the halls and main areas (they did say they’d fix it or have us change rooms which we eventually switched and the wifi was still shoddy. We had room 311 then swapped to room 202), only soundproof from other rooms but the hotel is near some rowdy businesses (rm 311)so I heard a lot of hee hee and ha ha at night along with some great music but it was 2am and I wanted to sleep since I was doing early morning tours. Consider carefully if you’re a light sleeper. Also, the pool closes at 8pm but I heard some drunk people hanging out there in the pool area. We were right above it (rm 202) so I heard the entire slurred conversation start to finish.
