Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room was good and the front desk staff was super friendly. The hotel was at a great spot where we could walk to alot of the tourist destinations.
The location was perfect
The room cleaner was awesome, check in ladies were very sweet and helpful.
The only i think I would say is they need some vending machines for after hours.
The room was spotless. Special thanks ro the front desk staff.
Ormandy, Nesha and Shelsie was awesome. Housekeeping staff and Kim was very friendly and made you feel at home. We enjoyed our stay.
Location was perfect! The rooms were always extremely clean. Our balcony had gorgeous views (especially of fireworks nightly), the upstairs bar was great, and staff was always so helpful, kind, and accommodating. I’m so happy we stayed here!
Lovely well kept hotel with nice rooftop space with pool and bar. There is music at night but this added to the enjoyment. Staff were excellent and very helpful. Would recommend for its central location, price and cool vibe.
A very comfortable stay. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, and the rooftop restaurant/bar was a highlight. Perfectly located in the heart of Punda with plenty of walkable restaurants and attractions. Highly recommend.
We had an amazing stay. The hotel is close to the beach, shopping, restaurants, the Curacao sign, etc. Area is really fun and staff is so friendly!
