The hotel was fairly clean and staff were thoughtful, everything was awesome. The restaurant was amazing and the food was spicy. Pleasant view of islands. They made my stay superb. Very quick check in & the service was spectacular. Mixed juices and great cocktails in the downstairs bar, small parking place.
