If you're looking for cheap beach front with walking distance to the city centre, and don't care too much about noise, cleanliness and very basic accommodation, this is the place. Nice bar which is busy during the afternoons when cruiseships are around. Rooms have aircon and a fridge.

Not very friendly staff in the lobby, experienced about 6 days of it…they act like you’re bothering them if you ask anything. The pool and ocean front was nice but would not stay again due to the pool music and night club sounds coming from somewhere nearby all the way until 3am. Very basic and budget friendly but at our cost of peace. The location and convenience of everything close by was nice. Good dive resort on sight was great.

Very dated hotel, burned, stained sheets, also towels stained (had to exchange them). Got handed the TV and AC remote controls at checkin. Dirty corners everywhere. Didn't expect much, but cleanliness is basic. It was like going back 40 years in time. The cabanas area lovely. Location amazing. The "No Name" beach club on site, fantastic, but not part of the hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness
The view of the ocean was worth the cost of the hotel for sure, and everything was clean. The tv however was tiny and unusable, and there was no internet in the room which was quite inconvenient. They charged an extra $30 cash for island tax, and charged me extra to store my valuables at the front desk because they don’t have safes/ boxes, and they have several signs posted about not leaving valuables in the room when you leave because they’re not liable for theft.

The beds are awful. Springs sticking out. First night - 2 beds, neither better than the other. Second night moved to another room. Again, 2 beds and both were awful. I had to use the pillows to try and have some sleep. My first room had garbage on the deck and dirty floors. Second room also had dirty floors. Wifi is not in the rooms and spotty throughout the resort. They tell you you get 50% off at the bar/restaurant - it is a limited menu and you must pay cash. Those staff members were lovely. Front desk staff was hot & miss. To top it off, bed bugs.
