Charging guests $35 to park is insane. All the free spots were blocked off everyday to force guests to use the valet. So a near empty parking lot and you couldn’t leave your car there. Service was average, nothing memorable. Good location in downtown Nassau.

This property had the qualities you would expect from a four star hotel. I didn't like that we had to change rooms because there was no tv remote. I don't know why there was $160. resort fee? We were comfortable and the staff was friendly and attentive. The area shuts down at 5pm but, we were able to find good dining options near by. All in all, It was a great trip.
