Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is centrally located in Porto Novo. The rooms are large and spacious. The hotel decor is really nice. Love the artwork throughout the property. This property is truly a home away from home. The restaurant is good also. I would recommend that if you're planning to stay at this property, to bring earplugs for sleeping at night because the hotel is located on a main road in Porto Novo with endless traffic sounds. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone spending time in Porto Novo. The staff is incredible from management, front desk, housekeeping, and security. Just tell them what you need and they will be happy to assist. I'm already planning to return to the hotel next year with a group. Thanks for making my visit a wonderful experience!
