Worst stay despite paying $400 per night
I hated my stay at this hotel.
To start with, they don't even have a front desk. We were asked to go to the adjacent hotel to checkin. This was not told during booking.
Checkin process was unusually slow. To add to that, 3 cops (fully armed) walked in and were discussing something in hushed voices with the receptionist. They talked to the manager and went ahead to evict an occupant.
What kind of place is this! That did not make me feel safe at all!
Once we got the keys we realized the hotel itself looks like a motel, both outside and inside. Also smelled bad. The pictures on the website are extremely deceiving!
Room was supposed to have garden view. There's paved green belt outside the rooms separating the road and walkway. They managed to call it a garden!
There's one permanently shut window facing these few plants and they managed to call it garden view room! Seriously?!
Technically the hotel doesn't even have a garden!
The shower unit is very old. They didn't even bother to fill up shower gel. No basic toiletries provided. There's a creepy corner in the bathroom for hanging clothes. No cabinet or closet! They advertised that the hotel is newly renovated. I don't understand what was renovated here!
To add insult to injury we were told we have VIP access! Nothing felt VIP about the stay!
This is the worst place I have stayed at, despite paying $400+ per night ! We felt cheated!

Looks like a hotel or resort from outside but it is Econolodge like motel. The resort fee was there but no services. Room floor was not mopped properly. Given the location, overall it was not bad, relaxing environment.

For a Renovated hotel it was awful. Blinds or phone didn't work in the room. Got a new room (not a king size bed) lock on door didn't work and both rooms TVs didn't go down pass 14 or 15. Walls were thin so you can hear noise from both rooms. I would not recommend this hotel at all.

Housekeeping wasn’t very responsive and had to wait too long. Food truck didn’t open when it was suppose to and they didn’t have breakfast at all even though it was supposed to. Lobby was closed so we needed to go next door for anything. Definitely felt like we were at the neglected hotel next door with minimal staff. When asked about breakfast we were directed to Starbucks next door and told sorry, hours aren’t right due to construction. Even tried to go next door for breakfast and their restaurant was also closed. Overall not a great experience and will probably not stay here again.

If it’s last minute then ok
This is a newly renovated property but doesn’t have all the amenities it advertised. No free one drink per customer and no microwave in rooms.

nice hotel
This hotel was very nice. The lobby was beautiful and the front desk clerk was very nice. The room was modern and
spacious, the beds were very comfortable as well.
The only thing I would change is the elevator. It made a horrible noise when using it.

There was renovation in progress in many of the rooms and breakfasts were not available. The staff did give me a $50 a day credit for having no breakfasts and the staff were amazing and the renovations will be great when finished. The hotel is great.

Try to take every penny they can.
The actual hotel was clean and comfortable with a nice pool and bar. However on top of an insanely high resort fee, which doesn’t include parking! That is an additional charge ONTOP of the resort fee, they also charged us an occupancy fee and an island contribution, which is not stated anywhere. The hotel website also states there is a complimentary shuttle to Old Town which they are charging $5 per person per trip for. The ‘free’ daily water included in the resort fee was not topped up and the pool was closed for part of our stay due to ongoing work at the hotel which is likely to wake you up at 6am like it did us. Struggling to see what exactly the resort fee does cover.
