Good value for price. Room had kitchenette but no coffee maker. Had to walk down street to front office to get coffee. Bathroom small. Needs mirror outside bathroom and hooks for towels. Staff was friendly, room was clean, bed comfortable. Would stay again.

Most uncomfortable hotel bed I've ever slept on. Glad we weren't there too often. Only 3 watchable channels on the TV and the outlet situation was a mess. Shower was tiny and the water in the bathroom reeked of sulfur. Nice enough staff but a very disappointing little cottage.

The room we stayed was small, no closet, my suggestion add some hooks for people to hang some of their belongings, and should add a long table too, the one we had was broken no place for our toiletries. Other than that it was really quiet at night, had a good view and the A/C kicked Ass!! Would stay Again.

Would not stay there again.
The shower was like a prison shower. It took about 10 mins of the hot water running to get some type of warm water. The water pressure was so soft barely spitting out. The room was so tiny. The beds were not comfortable. For almost $300 a night I would think it would have been better than that.

Upon reading the other reviews I believe it really depends what room you get! It wasn’t the best, but not the worst. You get what u pay for , but overall I loved this hotel due to it being so close to everything in the island! Our bathroom door was a hassle to close, and our sink we had to hold the plug up for the water to drain.The first night I showered with cold water due to the hot n cold being switched around! lol wish I knew sooner. Overall had a good time! Customer service was great though! Employees are super helpful and sweet!

Weekend gate away review
This hotel was so small and uncomfortable to sleep in . The hotel didn’t have a elevator and that was really inconvenient when traveling with a stroller . Additionally , our room was never cleaned the entire time that we stayed . We had to remind staff to bring us fresh towels , plastic trash bags , and etc. I believe for the price I paid versus the room and service it is definitely overpriced . I would not stay there again .
