I stayed at the hotel for three days. Never got cleaned. I guess it was supposed to ask for fresh towels and they have my bed made the problem. My head was that MapQuest sent me to the wrong address. It took me forever to find the place.

Requests were met. Modest accommodations for budget price. Stayed 3 ntes. Thank you. Oh. You get 61 steps to the top sunset view room. Nice.

The people at this establishment are truly generous, knowledgeable, call, mom, polite, call mom and cautious. The hotel is located one block away from the waterfront and the ferry terminal, next-door to the golden tulip. It is safe to walk at all times. The rooms are ample, simple, clean, and have a beautiful view of the waterfront.

Very nice place- the AC works great, the breakfast is tasty and the lady who serves it is nice. The only thing is the front desk guys usually are a bit strange. also being on the 4th floor it's a bit of a hassle to go up & down for every little thing- batteries for the AC control, key for safe, additional towel etc

Brand new property. Very helpful staff and great property Manager . Sorry! Forgot his name. 2 mins from the ferry and 10 mins from the main stone town area. Best of all, it’s a brand new property.

Absolute SCAM - avoid at all costs! I made a booking to stay here but when I arrived they said they were fully booked and that they could put me in some other dodgy place. I said no and they said they couldn’t refund me because they didn’t have access to their Expedia account. There was another couple there that were experiencing the same thing. To this day, have not received a refund and ended up having to pay triple the price for a hotel as it was peak season and a lot of places were booked.

A small hotel near the ferry and market, staff was absolutely amazing and kind. Did everything they could to make our stay amazing. Help them by booking yourself as Expedia takes too much commission
