We stayed one night, and enjoyed our stay, especially with a large room overlooking the ocean with great window line. Property is located in the commercial area, not the old city, but was very convenient for us to get to the pier in the morning for a trip to the islands.

Firs of all I can say the property is new and super clean. Staff is friendly but. There are two problem that accrued 1) pictures are misleading. There are no bathrobes and extra towels in the room although they are on pictures in description. 2) a gym area is super confined and overlooking a breckfest area. There is not enough space to stretch or do yoga. 3) its very poor sound isolation I can hear neighbors till past afer midnight. All and all I have mixed sensations.
