I only stayed one night but great customer service. The receptionist was great. I had a problem with my room and was moved immediately. The rooms are very spacious and clean. Only reason I gave 4 stars is because there was no hot water. Not sure why and I was too exhausted to find out. It’s very close to the airport that’s why I stayed there. I will definitely stay there again if I have an early flight.

Really nice renovations going on. Close to the airport. Really good for in the hotel restaurant Red Stripe. Plenty of outdoor seating by the water. Great place to catch a sunset! The new owner is extremely nice and has some great ideas for the future of this hotel. Can't wait to go back and see the progress.

The views at this property were beautiful, a massive plus for me. Pleasant and friendly staff, good food (lovely traditional breakfast at weekend) & music. The outside of the hotel looks great, rooms need just a little TLC.
Would stay again.
