Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was clean and small. However, the rooms were clustered around a common courtyard. You could hear everyone coming and going. You could hear the shower being turned on in the next room. We couldnt sleep. We left after 2 days although we booked a 4 day trip. If you want to sleep- think twice about coming here. We were really unhappy with the set up. For 170 a night, we ecpected to at least be able to sleep through the night. The soap was pretty much water and it was a terrible experience all round. At that price find another place to go. Might be worth it if the prices were more of a hostel. But at 170 a night, we felt super ripped off. Also its a self service place and there was nobody after 5 to talk to about the noise. So youre pretty much stuck

We only stayed one night to do a biobay tour and this was the perfect location. The bunk beds were fun and although i was hesitant at first about the shared bathrooms, it worked out totally fine. Rooms had a/c and we slept well! Communication with the host was via text and very helpful and convenient. Would definitely stay here again!

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
In general it met my expectations, but there were a few aspects that I found disappointing. I booked as reserve now pay at property, to find out later that there is no front desk to check in at, and had to work out payment through an online portal before our stay. The room itself was cute and laid out well, but it wasn’t as clean as I feel it should’ve been. I found little dead bugs on the pillows, as if the room hadn’t been check on in a while. WiFi wasn’t strong enough to use. Great location for shopping and nearby activities.

A super helpful staff that picks up the phone and helps out for a self check in hotel. Booked day of, had to change reservation like 3 times, and they helped me through it all. Room was super easy to get into, directions were smooth and simple, and the area was perfect. Right next to one of the most active parts of town, and a 8 minute walk from the Bio Bay tours. Be aware, there's no microwave in the room. AC worked amazing. Showers hot water lasted well, just don't blast it.

The weather was beautiful. Great location. Just be prepared to share bathrooms with no hand soap in any of them. And using the bathroom someone was on the roof with a leaf blower and blow water and leafs all over me when I was using the bathroom.

Motel Maybe

Understand that this is at best a motel and more like a hostel. It is not to the level of a motel 6 but the location is good. AC works well and the bed is fine but accommodations are commensurate with the 6 or 7 rating. There is a musty smell in the room and it could use some TLC. No hot water no matter how long I let it run.

Very low-key. Very small. Grounds are more like a compound. Nothing fancy about this place but it served the exact purpose we wanted. Basically connected to Lazy Jacks Bar that has a decent menu and a solid mixed drink selection. I wouldn’t normally give this type of establishment 4-stars but taking into consideration the location, walkability, accessible parking and quiet grounds it seemed fitting. There wasn’t anything outstanding about this place but there also wasn’t anything wrong with it.
