The room was very clean, I had an issue at check in, but that was corrected by Mr. Brown, his handling of the situation was top notch. The staff was very friendly even after my issue at check in. I would like to thank Mr. Brown for taking this matter seriously.

2/5 - Disappointing

It’s very touristy and commercial. If you prefer to get away from busy crowds and shops, head to the north shore for a much more rustic, and authentic experience.
