They were very very very slow with the food, often ran out of minor things like coffee. The bed was hard, the safe did not work. The view was amazing though, and the food was too expensive.

It’s a dirty motel charging hotel prices. It was filthy. No towels, no soap. We had to wait for them to clean towels. The knob on the rust and hole filled shower came right off, the toilet was plugged, there’s bugs all over and overall it’s like a hostel

This hotel is located in a beautiful location by the sea. Loved the views of Kingston & Portmore. Service at the restaurant was extremely slow due to lack of staff I think. The food was not good, we went over to Gloria’s fish restaurant a 5 minute walk (it was good & great value for money). There were no chairs on the patios outside the room which was disappointing. I did ask about this & they were in the process of providing new furniture, which is great. Overall dispute this, I would recommend for a great stopover from/to the airport & for the nearby party cruise mooring.

Three star hotel with three star staff and 3 star facilities. I went down for breakfast. Beautiful setting over-looking the Kingston Harbour. No staff in sight - likely in the back. No hot water, tea bags at the drink station, only coffee. No water or juice put out. Not appealing. I left without having anything.

I booked this hotel for two family members who were looking to stay somewhere for the night. The room was not cleaned properly. There was used toilet paper (very used roll). There is dust in the air conditioner and the room overall was really stuffy.No cable or room phone. We were really hoping the hotel would have been way better. The staff was super helpful and kind, housekeeping was the issue.

Where to begin? For US279, I've had better service for $40. I arrived just before 9pm on a Monday and was informed there was no food available on the property or within walking distance, not even a vending machine. I was told thet, I left about 3/4 of the free breakfast bar was open til 10, but the bartender was cashing out at nine. The lovely pool had a `pool closed' sign on it all the time I was there. The `free shuttle' was a taxi ride (US$50 tip round trip). I'm not sure how one messes up scrambled eggs and sausage, but after waiting almost a half hour when I was the only person in the restaurant, I left about 3/4 of the free breakfast - I tried giving a piece of the sausage to the cat that was begging and it turned its nose up at it. I couldn't take my medications because There wasn't a glass or cup in the room. I couldn't shower because the shower handle came off in my hand... The staff was very polite about explaining that service was basically nonexistent and would remain so. Without competition, the WORST hotel value I have ever received in my 73 years.
