It was in the middle of everything..all of the action. We really enjoyed our stay! The rooms are not up to US Standards, but they were clean and a deal at their price. You must get a room on the street with a balcony if you want to see all the action. I was afraid after I booked the hotel, then I looked at the reviews and thought I'd gotten the wrong hotel. But, after being there I was extremely pleased. The food in the restaurant was wonderful. Our room came with breakfast...it was a typical Jamaican breakfast, which was great and a great way to explore other foods and typical Jamacian Food. They have a chef that will cook eggs anyway you want it. Everyone in the hotel went out of their way to please and help us, except the front desk. They have a bad disposition! We did not use the pool...why with a beautiful beach across the street! One review told me to take $100 in one dollar bills...this was good advise. The people there only make their money from tips...so tip well...Read more

Very nice indeed!
We just stayed one night before heading toward Port Antonio. First we were surprised by the very affordable rate, then found the interior and open air areas quite lush and very pleasant. The bar inside was great, barman was a cool guy and did great cocktails. The room was OK considering the price and the interior mature garden is large, extremely welcoming with its small pool and jacuzzi hidden in the 'jungle'.
The staff have been smiling, very pleasant... The location on the Hip Strip and what else to say except that it was very nice indeed as a first stop in Jamaica!
If you don't know where to go, go there.
