    Bathroom could do with a refurbishment as the huge oval bath was very dated, however water hot and pressure good, and that's the only fault.

    Very clean large room, good WiFi, staff were very friendly and helpful and the plunge pool was lovely

    Room size quite small. There’s a long mirror in our room but it reflected a distorted view. Our bedding had some black spots of different size when we came in, I swept them off with my hand thinking they were dust. We went out for dinner and came back to see even more of the black spots. Receptionists had left by this time. Although the black spots don’t look alive and we were not bitten by anything, it was a worrying sight.

    This hotel is dated and certainly needs some reviewing like replacing missing tiles in the bathroom and hooks. Staff were courteous and friendly. The location is just off the Main Street.

    Too much chlorine into the little pool. Lack of adequate space to put the 5 day trip clothes, no lamp, no night table, no electrical socket near bed, no place to put shampoo and soap bottles but on the shower floor

    Staff, breakfast, cleaning, location , mattress and pillows are super comfy, complementary coffee,tea, water 24/7. Breakfast was very good 😊

    The room was cool looking. The place was a little old but charming. My room had no AC, so it got a little hot. But being on the third floor with windows open, I got a pretty decent ocean breeze and was able to sleep comfortably.

    The area has lots of construction sites at the moment, and you have to walk a bit to reach the pier area with bars and restaurants, but it's totally manageable.

    I got an upgraded room (the suite) which was very nice and made it up for my previous horrible experience on another island, so thanks a lot! The beds are super comfy, with various pillows and good linen. The bathroom was nice and clean, the shower was hot. The Wi-Fi works good both in the room and in the common area. The staff is super friendly and helpful.

    The wifi was not good but we suspect there is a signal problem in the entire island. We missed also some basics elements in a hotel room: hairdryer or a safe

    Room was a bit small but with everything you need.

    Comfortable and clean room. Staff is very welcoming and will give you information about the islands. Common little pool, eating and sofas area. You get drinking water and possible luggage storage. Located next to the beginning of the Tortuga Bay Trail, next to the market.

    The 'closet' in the room was only a clothes rail without enough hangers. There was an odd smell in the bathroom sometimes. Not many nice restaurants or bars nearby.

    It was great to get an air conditioned room for the price, fresh towels everyday and the hostel was clean. They allowed us to store some food in their fridge for our own breakfasts

    room is functional but has an unfinished flavor. Needs installing flat screen TV and a few other repairs.

    very friendly and personable service especially during break fast times! Excellent healthy hot breakfast! Daily room service and a front desk for any questions! well secured all times. Easy to get to bus stop, main street with tons of restaurants and grocery stores and bike rental and tour operators.
