The staff was great, check in that day was very busy but the staff remained friendly and professional. The room was a nice size and all face the beach, bed was comfortable, and overall the room was clean. It is an older hotel yet well maintained. The pool is salt not chlorine and I love that. It also goes to 7 feet deep. I do a lot of solo traveling and felt safe on the grounds. I would recommend this resort to anyone traveling to St. Thomas.
