Great staff! Small room, but very clean with both ceiling fan and AC. Simple, yet rich in local culture. Much preferred to the larger, busier hotels a short walk across road on the beach. Beach access, bring in-room beach towels. Safe location. Recommendation Platos a 5 min. walk away for an excellent Caribbean dinner.
Small patio, great sunsets.
Continental breakfast.
Centre courtyard.
Breakfast view.

Hotel was very cosy, location excellent, staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the room was small, but very very clean and tastefully put together. The only critique was that there was no coffee maker in the room. Otherwise a great experience.
