"We were promised check in at 4pm and if we checked in after 7pm, then they would charge us additional…well, the apartment wasn’t even cleaned till 7:30pm! Even after that, it had a bad odor from it, my wife and daughter refused to stay there so we left! It honestly looked like a very shady place to stay! The bathroom with the round jacuzzi tub was just that, no shower. Maybe if we were back in college on a limited budget, but definitely on at this stage of my life! Location was good and it...

"We arrived in the early evening and dropped off our luggage. We wanted to take a swim and cool off in the pool, but after one look, we decided not to. We returned around midnight and left the following morning, so fortunately we spent less than 10 hours in the apartment. The building is nice and located in a quiet area. There is free parking right outside, and it is within walking distance of the restaurants and shops in the old town. The bathroom had nice, large towels. Unfortunately, there...

10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful place to stay! The location is stunning, and everything about the hotel was top notch! We will definitely be back. We paid extra to have our deluxe ocean view terrace room on the 6th floor. I wish knew those balcony’s did not have a glass wall. Only thing I would do differently is request a room on the 5th floor, not the 6th."
