I didn’t think the rooms felt too dated The bed was really comfortable to sleep in and they were able to provide a pack and play for my toddler The staff was so helpful and it was easy to find someone to assist with our luggage or any questions about the hotel

As for the location, it’s perfectly situated between a few major streets with major bus routes There’s also a laundry mat just around the block that’s easy to use Overall I think this is a great place to stay if you want someplace comfortable to sleep that is nicely located to tourist activities and bus lines The only thing I wish the hotel had was a bigger fridge

Grace Grilliot

I have stayed at this particular hotel many times, but finally writing a review The hotel is in a great location, you can walk anywhere downtown from there The staff is super friendly and accommodating

We got upgraded to an ocean view room which was very nice For those not familiar with Double Tree, the cookies were delicious as usual! We received the daily food and beverage credit for being Diamond members, but the restaurants were not open when we wanted to use them, so we didn’t That was our fault, but, the hotel should make the restaurant available more often so people can hang out and have a cocktail before dinner time We had a great stay and were very happy with our room and amenities!

This hotel has a great balcony and pool area that I utilized when I didn’t want to walk to the beach The couches are great for daytime reading or watching shows, or you can hangout there at night with nice lights around you The beach is a 20 minute walk and the area felt safe

Though the water wasn’t in sight, the views are beautiful with either mountains or a nice park area This hotel isn’t a 5 star hotel (which I couldn’t afford anyways) but is fairly priced and has everything you need! Every single employee I encountered was friendly – the most friendly than any hotel I’ve ever been They greeted me and chatted every time The folks standing outside are especially awesome, especially Pedro They try to remember their guests and serve them I was very impressed and will return if I come to Oahu again!

I love love love this hotel! The view is beautiful, and it’s so clean everywhere I love their system for valet parking They’re very quick and friendly

We stayed on the 21st floor so the view of the mountains and Waikiki is beautiful However, we’ve been staying here for 4 nights and 5 days without cold water in the restroom When I said no cold water, I mean absolutely no cold water Imagine yourself showering with burning hot water that causes third degree burns This is such a traumatizing experience for me and my friends We’ve complained and was advised someone would do something about it, and nothing We couldn’t move to another hotel since everywhere is booked The hotel said someone was going to come and fix this problem, but then again they didn’t care to fix it I’m surprised not much could have been done If you’re unit have a water problem, you can move us to another room This is my first time to Hawaii and it could have been a very positive experience otherwise if it hasn’t been for this I understand there are situations where things just doesn’t work out, and we are just unlucky with the room having a malfunction However, how the hotel react to it is very important Such poor communication and management for such a nice place If you’re unlucky like us then you’re pretty much screwed I would not recommend this place

Enjoyed staying here Book lagoon (not Marina side, not city/concrete jungle side) #1130 was nice for what we needed

Blackout curtains would have been a nice addition Large balcony to have morning beverage or snack, tv, air conditioning, updated kitchen and shower, king bed and sofa bed Can view fireworks from balcony on Friday nights Would stay again Pool was nice Restaurant downstairs outside Ice cream, trinkets and some items at store at hotel like postcards, makeup bags, beach bags, soaps, beverages, snacks Very nice open air restaurant with fantastic history Walking distance to restaurants, beach and lagoon right there, Marina, perfect view from balcony

Vince K

Room was very nice, great view Centric location in Waikiki Plenty of food, shopping, and beaches in the area

Had fully stocked kitchenette, meaning utensils and cookware Temp was great but wish the fan/cooler could be aimed more at the bed Liked that all we had to do to check in/out was enter a code in the door lock Security was very nice during the few interactions we had with them Not sure if this is a normal thing with these kind of rentals but they only give you a ‘starter’ set of goods (tp, shampoo/conditioner, soap, lotion and towels) and then a small fee of you want more or buy some at the market in the lobby I guess my point is that you usually get those things from room service as part of your stay Was nice sitting on the open pavilion and enjoying a couple of meals at sunset They have two pools, technically Main one is a regular pool with an outdoor hose and then showers in the adjacent bathroom Higher level one was just a jacuzzi and a very shallow pool You will get jealous of neighbors on either side however cause the Hilton has a crazy water fall pool with decoration and the other side has gazebos all around the perimeter of their pool with a big round splash pad Would recommend

Great hotel in an excellent location (Kapolei), about 20-25 min west of Honolulu Lots and lots of places to eat and shop within a few a minutes of the hotel and easy access to the H-1 highwayThe staff was extremely friendly and the hotel was clean and well-maintained

The breakfast is excellent with a wide variety of items including fresh omelettes The fitness center is quite nice as well The beds were comfortable and housekeeping services were well-organized (need to request housekeeping the day before) Would definitely recommend staying here and would come back for sure in the future!

Hilton Honors member here Stayed here for 9 days and had a great experience The management and staff worked hard to make things right while we stayed there

The AC in our room broke down; we were moved to another room The staff was very friendly! The free breakfast was our favorite The suites are perfect for families! Will def stay again here

Wynona Adams

All the staff are great but watch out for the hostesses for breakfast! If you and your family are local, they will stare at you like you don’t belong there! Even if you check in with one of them and go back to get ANYTHING after you went up once they will stare at you harder!!! The other one will literally run after you like you personally stole something from her even if you already told them how many was in your party Front desk was amazing But bad experience with the breakfast hostesses

Wish I could give a higher rating for the service we got from the other people that work there

Terrible experience The hotel is very old and needs a renovation We couldn’t use the AC because it stinks

We took the filters out and they wasn’t cleaned for at least a few years, and it helped a little bit No windows so we basically had no air The last night at 4am our room filled with smoke and strong smell of something being burned, we were it’s fire but no fire alarm was on The smell and smoke was strong so we couldn’t be in the room since 4am We had to check out and move outThe room was also very dirty and full of previous guests hairThe area around is full of homeless people but it’s a downtown so it’s kinda as it should be in AmericaVery bad experience with this placeThe stuff was very helpful and nice tho That’s the only good thing about this hotel – the stuff

pafadul

Stayed here last week with my wife and chose this hotel because it was closer to the capitol and the palace In theory it sounded good but was a big mistake The area around the hotel (and I understand that this is out of their control) was not tourist friendly

Lots of homeless wandering around, people sleeping on sidewalks, abandoned looking buildings (the longs drugs at the bottom of the hotel was shuttered), and generally did not look safe The hotel itself does not have a restaurant or room service, so you will be forced to look around the hotel, which is fine unless you want to eat after 3pm (most of the restaurants close after this time) Now for the hotel itself The staff was friendly and tried to be helpful, but they could only do so much There is no fitness center at this hotel (a first for us since even the holiday inn has a basic setup) but they can sell you a one use pass for the 24 hour fitness nearby for $12 The view in the room was great, but the room itself was dated No comforter on the bed, and room service only comes by after 4 days of your stay You can request housekeeping or more towels, but we never actually tried this The tub had jets but as others had mentioned, the nozzles were black and quite dirty In our room the caulking at the base of the tub was not present, leaving a nice gap between the tile and the tub that looked unsettling when walking around with bare feet The carpet was well worn and the wallpaper was peeling in several places The a/c diffuser was placed on top of the door to the bedroom and ended up blowing directly on us as we tried to sleep, which was annoying It was nice that the rooms have a kitchenette with utensils, mugs, etc That actually came in handy a couple of times We did like the fact that there was a small table in the bedroom as well as the kitchen area and a loveseat as well Lots of room, but everything was just so old and worn down Overall, i think the hotel could be great if they just renovated the rooms I feel like this would have been an awesome hotel like 30 years ago

Stephanie Chase

Spacious room with a full small kitchen, a bathroom with a large tub and a washer/dryer, and a large bedroom with a view The neighborhood around the hotel has many AMAZING restaurants, and it is very easy to access Ala Moana and Waikiki beaches (in fact, much of Honolulu) via the multiple bus lines that come right by the hotel Keep in mind you are in downtown Honolulu, and not the tourist-filled streets of Waikiki

We’re staying at the Hilton Waikiki village hotel and it’s beautiful Upon our arrival we checked out the tours and activities desk and made arrangements for a sail cruise We were offered a discount if we attended a presentation “a sales pitch” to hear about their members club to become an owner for their vacation club resort

We attended the presentation not to mention we gave away 2 hrs away from our vacation time Presentation was smooth, agents were so nice until we said no to their offer Their whole personalities changed They were no longer nice or accommodating You could tell they were bothered at the fact that their pitch was turned down Not to mention they tell you there’s no pressure when going into the presentation But yet they pretty much look angry if you don’t walk out saying yes These people get paid to do these presentations I understand it’s their time too but it’s their job They need to be more understanding when it comes to visitors We’re giving up time we could be doing other things instead of being a chair for 2 hrs listening to a sales pitch to only get a bad reaction once it’s all overCynthia you were awesome and polite until we said no and then you could tell it’s all fake As well as the other young lady who came in after you who was suppose to only do a survey but instead just threw another sales pitch Pleasant until she heard a no They need to learn how to be respectful even their sales pitch wasn’t successful

CJ Simmons

Purchased room with ocean view If you leaned out the window you could see the marina…not exactly ocean view Staff used the elevators with their carts during peak hours, we waited multiple times for 15+ minutes, each time a car would stop, it was full of staff

Expect to pay, room rate plus $44 resort fee, $45 taxes and $65 parking each day Your $249 room is actually $400 Just FYI Our room, we were also lucky enough to share it with the elevators Very loud and very annoying Lagoon tower is garbage in my opinion Staff were very friendly, restaurants were good Super busy

E

The front desk attendants were exceptional! Sherry and Yuko were so welcoming and knowledgeable about the surrounding area for dining needs The location is perfect and proximal to the beach and shopping centers Very family friendly or solo traveler friendly

My only complaint was the room, which they quickly and professionally addressed Would recommend for any business or leisure trip

Check in was easy The hotel is CLEAN No foul smells, it actually has a fresh smell to it

Beds are comfortable Housekeeping daily was greatly appreciated The only thing is parking You may or may not get a spot Other than that I’m enjoying my stay Side note even though parking isn’t the best, the location of the hotel is walking distance to food the beach and entertainment I’d definitely stay here again

fritz schacht

The single room I had was very small Not enough room for me to open up my luggage comfortably Pulling my luggage over the bed to get to the other side

My room was very clean I only needed to stay overnight, so I managed My colleague’s fortunately had larger rooms I definitely would stay at the Ala Moana hotel againI recommend the Steak restaurant on the 32 floor Fine dinning , great service, fabulous food

Tina Jentilet

We had a lovely conference Facilities were good, but I was freezing Check out the hand made origami peacock centerpiece

The vegetarian lunch was superb My room was good, but not much of a view I didn’t expect to have someone come in to make my bed or empty the trash (not usual protocol since COVID) so unfortunately some pens and business cards got thrown out It was nice to come back after a long day to have a nicely made bed

We loved our stay here! The room was clean, spacious, had a great view and the Oahu winds on the balcony were amazingThere are a handful of different towers at the Hilton Village and all guests can use any of their many pools Lots of restaurants are on site, gift shops as well as ABC stores which have all the essentials

Not to mention it’s also steps away from Waikiki beach Would definitely recommend

James Coleman

Not too bad overall, but a little overrated The price is what you’d expect from a military-affiliate hotel, so the higher rank you are the less value you’re getting The location isn’t bad, but a little outside the main area (this may be considered an advantage)

Parking is $16 is you’re staying there, which is great for the area The big hit on this hotel for me, along with the rough towels in the bathroom, was the pool There’s an adult only pool, a main pool with an infinity pool above it, and a splash area for children The splash area is fun, but the main pool had so many rules it was hard to enjoy anything:- the entire pool is cleared at the top of the hour for “safety and training,” whatever that entails (it wasn’t obvious)- a child must know how to swim to swim in the pool without a life jacket (which they will provide) I understand that’s extremely safe, but then what’s the point of the three lifeguards and the other rule to be within arm’s reach of your young child all the time? Clearly this pool is not a good opportunity to have a child practice swimmingOverall, I’m glad I stayed a night, and I haven’t discounted the Hale Koa entirely, but I will definitely do a thorough cost comparison with hotels in the area before staying again

Jessica Morel

Friendly staff, very clean hotel and Omgosh the beds are comfortable as ever! There is a Starbucks in the main lobby which is convenient when you want to wake up early and just lounge in the lobby area Downstairs there is the Exchange for military and hotel guest Pathway downstairs leads you to the pools and beaches

Food was good I had a cheeseburger and fries for lunch which was delicious Ocean view rooms you will not regret if you purchase it was amazing! Free parking and walking distance from the strip I definitely would book here again!

Tammy Folks

Hale Koa is a haven in the craziness of Waikiki The grounds are stunning The adult pool was so relaxing and quiet, with shaded areas which is a must for me

Liked the Barefoot Bar as there was a lot of room to spread out, and had good drinks for a reasonable price Our room was very nice, we were on the end so had an extra large window which made it feel more spacious Our friends stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian village which was beautiful, but it was way too crowded for us We enjoyed the serene quiet of Hale Koa! The only thing I would change is for restaurants to have more gluten free options as I have celiac disease The breakfast buffet was fine, but the snack bars really had very little or nothing I could eat This hotel is a definite perk for those who serve/retire from the military We felt blessed to have the opportunity to stay there!

This was a great hotel to stay in for a much needed long vacation after years of not really travelling anywhere long distance due to the pandemic The view from the room was divine, and the bathroom was the fanciest one I have experienced in a hotel Think lots of marble

The location is at the end of the Waikiki strip, but still walkable to all of the shops and restaurants There are 2 gift shops, and one serves a lot like the ABC convenience stores that are all over Oahu, with pricing that isn’t that different The 100 Sails restaurant in the hotel was fabulous for breakfast A bit pricey, but worth it to try at least once Highly recommend

Purushottam Raj

I and my family stayed here for seven nights and it was absolutely fabulous! The views from the room, elevator, pool are amazing The staff is super friendly, courteous and nice! The valet parking is also good This was our third visit to Oahu

We had stayed in Hilton properties before, including Hilton Village resort, except for the village experiences this hotel has been the absolute bestI loved the bathroom setup, separate shower, closed toilet with bidet (seat warmer), soaking tub outsideGreat house keeping, very friendly and goodMissing things: may be a Lanai (balcony) and Microwave, and US mainland based ATMs that don’t charge extra 🙂

Max Park

Highly recommendedContext: Ocean view room, two-nightsLocation was great

Just a 15-minute minute walk from the main hub of Waikiki For us, this meant less homeless people and a quieter area with an amazing view of the ocean, especially during sunset Also, there’s a mall that’s a 15-20 minute walk in the other directionRoom was perfect Great view, large enough, and clean Really like their bathroom set-up which is seen more in resorts in Japan Shower and toilet are in separate stalls with a spacious “common” area where the sink and mirror are Great for couplesStaff were very welcoming and accommodating If you need anything printed, they can do it for you if their commonplace printers are down They’ll also send up a microwave for you if you need one**sushi place in the first floor is alright Wife really enjoyed it, but I’d rather get poke at a market elsewhere

ashley stidham

Spent a week with my kids at this resort and i honestly don’t have a bad thing to say about it From our arrival, the customer was some of the best i have ever experienced It is a beautiful resort that is super kid friendly

Multiple pools for the kids to enjoy and a reflection pool for the grown ups The lagoon beach out front was perfect for laying out, building sand castles, and just relaxing in the water There were different activities to keep everyone entertained including an outdoor movie night My only real issue with this resort is that it’s on Oahu, so any time you venture off property there is horrible trafficI would highly recommend this resort!

Karen Scott

The resort is beautiful and well kept Our villa is spacious and has plenty of space for the 7 people Even the pull out beds are comfortable

The kitchens are equipped with more than enough tools to cook a full meal or a simple snack The view from the balcony is gorgeousThere are a ton of activities daily for kids and adults The restaurants are good and the food is delicious and comes out piping hotThe beach is gorgeous and because it’s in a cove there are little to no waves and very calm You can float in a tube and fall asleep it’s so calmThe pools are refreshing and offer something for everyone A quiet pool (reflection), a toddler/volleyball pool with a beach sand entry, and another pool with varying levels that has a waterfall, cave and separate slideThe ocean is clear, you can see straight to the bottom There are fish everywhere as well It’s amazing!Fabulous resort and worth the trip!

The adult infinity pool was our go to hang out spot and is absolute paradise The beach area is pristine and wasn’t crowded the entire week we were there, and was far less busy than the Disney area We couldn’t have asked for a better stayWe planned our trip here for a baby-moon and we were greeted with congratulations, chocolate covered strawberries, sparkling water, and even a body pillow for me to get better sleepThank you for such a lovely stay, Four Seasons Oahu!

We absolutely loved our stay here We came during a busy time of the year — spring break, spending majority of our time at the adult pool (18+ yo) The thing I’ll remember most about our stay was how friendly the ENTIRE staff was from valet, to the front desk, to all the servers at the pools, even the folks at the spa and for the hotel activities

The poolside drinks and food exceeded my expectations I’m fact, we ate at Noe and Mina’s and would have rather ate by the pool instead We also did the stand up paddle board in the lagoon and the sail + scuba and just loved it — highly recommend the sail + scuba We overheard a family from the Disney resort say the four seasons was not a family friendly resort and I beg to differ Although we didn’t have kids with us, we saw a lot of other families with kids and they appeared to be having a wonderful timeOh, and if you get a massage, get the warrior massage and try to book with Bronson I had an incredible experience and would definitely see him again – his hands are magical

AN ISLAND ON AN ISLANDWe arrived on Friday and plan to leave on Monday We’ve stayed at Four Seasons on three of three islands, and this one was no different as far as delivery is concernedWe’ve had a wonderful time!From checking in and getting our leis, to asking the concierge to help us make dinner and massage reservations, everything has been easy, engaging, and inviting

We definitely feel pamperedWe also ate at Mina’s Fish House last night and plan on eating at Noe (Italian) this evening [my birthday] [[SUPERBOWL!!!]]There are many photograph moments, but the best part of the stay has been our room upgrades, which gave us an ocean view, and having Japanese breakfast on the balcony before sunrise (thank you room service! Especially Sarah, who ensured me “We can absolutely do Japanese breakfast at 6am”We also used the gym and the adult pool I’ll be honest, I haven’t left the pool (again, it’s my birthday so I’m allowed)We are so appreciative of the staff and look forward to returning again real soon

Great place for a vacation stay! It’s near right on the beach and has multiple pools for all ages (lazy river, slides, infinity pool, +18 area, man-made reef for snorkeling) They have rentals for some equipment like paddle boarding The resort snorkeling also costs money, but the other areas are free!The inside is very nice

You didn’t have to walk too far for elevators and parking was pretty easy We had a suite and studio rooms, both were nice The suite had a kitchen area with utensils, plates, and glassware It also had a laundry machines in the room, a big plus of us! Any time we asked for blankets or towels, the service was fast The view from the top floors is amazing! Definitely a resort feel and very kid friendly!

I’ve stayed here twice as a “local” to this island, each time in a standard room, once with partial ocean, another with garden view Without a doubt the reason I’m willing to pay Disney prices to stay here has nothing to do with Mickey and Minnie I stay here for the undeniable TOP LEVEL safety at the pools

As a mom who comes here with my child alone, I will pay good money for that level of lifeguard coverage since it’s impossible to have eyes on your child at all times in a property this large with slides and a lazy river Poolside food service is also invaluable for a similar reason No shuffling to a cafe to get lunch while risking losing your chairs A cast member will bring the food right to your lounge area Unfortunately, the beds in the room are not comfortable- in my opinion It’s a firm mattress on a wood platform with only sheets on top to keep you warm The first time we stayed for 3 nights I was cold and uncomfortable and slept terribly I plan on only staying one night going forward I do not see the value in losing sleep when I have the option of sleeping in my own amazing bed

Beautiful resort! The staff are all so kind, lovely, and personable They really make you feel like you’re home Everything is clean and orderly

The food is fantastic! The pools, hot tubs, and beach are so fun and relaxing The location is perfect, just far enough away from Waikiki that its quiet and calm, but close enough to the activity Clearly there are hints of Disney throughout, since it is a Disney resort, but its actually quite tasteful My whole family can’t wait to go back!

This place was amazing! There was a beautiful view and back porch My family purchased a 2 bedroom room, which was plenty of space for the four of us The smaller bedroom has two twin beds that could be split or merged perfect for the kids

The customer service was great and there was even a greeter to help us navigate the island and our rooms

Whitney Hicks

Our room was gorgeous Ground floor 2 bedroom We sat out onto our beautifully decorated lanais every morning for breakfast

Kids could play in the pools while we watched from the lanais And just a few short steps to the right was the beach The lagoon is perfect for kids Entirely protected waters with sea turtles!!The staff at Ko Olina is amazing And the villas are 5-10 minute walk (along the ocean) to fantastic restaurants and shops and ABC grocery storeIf you are looking for an elegant and kid friendly vacation- Ko Olina is perfect

Dave

We stayed a week at the Ko Olina Beach Villas in a beach tower condo on the seventh floor We loved the property! This property seems like it is more relaxed and quiet than the Marriott or the Disney Aulani next door The lagoon at this property was not very crowded compared to the others

Beautiful sunsets right out in front of the resort made for amazing evenings! The staff was courteous and easy to get a hold of I highly recommend this property if you are looking for a ocean front area on Oahu

We had a wonderful week stay at the Grand Waikikian The check in and check out was quick and efficient The rooms are nice and are equipped with a kitchen and a washer/dryer in the unit

The customer service was excellent from the valet to the front desk The pools are nice but you do have to go early to get chairs they fill up quickly The resort is big it takes awhile to get use to where everything is The tapas bar has live music and the bands are great It is crowded but we never had issues getting an elevator to our room We are looking forward to coming back here again

Alissa Owenson

Just checked out after staying here for 7 days It was great to have a full kitchen, two bathrooms and the room was huge a lot of wasted space with the huge hallway but it was a great stay My most favorite thing was having a washer and dryer

I used it at least once a day It was so great being able to wash our beach towels at the end of everyday Not a ton of cooking utensils… definitely couldn’t cook a 5 course meal but enough to get by for small jobs The Hilton Hawaiian village is absolutely massive was packed with people and cars Parking is absolutely atrocious at $57 a day but nice location for in and out The pool nearest us with the water slide was cool but once we ventured farther we found the big pool right off Waikiki beach that was the spot They had tables next to the pool with servers Good drinks and good poolside food, reasonably priced If you are here on Friday night you have to make your way there once the sun goes down for fantastic fireworks Overall great stay!

Staff is all top notchOnly stayed here because it was close to work location so not crazy about the location, but it’s a great hotel

The space was amazing It seems like everything is new And there is a fresh smell to the hotel

So I really appreciate the fact that the place is clean and newer Not to mention the rooms with kitchen living room bedroom and bathroom It gives more of a home feel to it The staff was really good they were very welcoming and professional I am very grateful for that The managers were very helpful and knowledgeable This is a great place to stay and the location is great as well Thanks!

A great hotel experience I stayed at Residence Inn for 9 nights, so really had a chance to see it in operation Every single member of the staff — front desk, breakfast service, housekeeping staff, groundskeepers — were helpful, professional and so friendly

And the place is immaculate Self parking is great; proximity to the highway makes getting around Oahu easy I will stay here again

From walking in to the lobby We were greeted by friendly professional staff and was escorted up to our room It was very pleasant to walk in and feel a warm ambiance

When you look at the rooms you know you are in Hawaii ! Beds were comfortable clean We did our laundry which was a big help for clean towels and clothes Beautiful luscious grounds And a view to die for Our family BBQ enjoyed the ambiance of a true hawaiian vacation I not only recommend this resort I definitely will return soon

This particular location is awesome They make you as a gust feel so welcomed This is my second time staying here and it’s perfect

The team members are the best The front desk employees night and day are the best They go above and beyond and that is true customer service Even though some were training, they were a team and they help each other out I had an issue with my cellphone and had to get a replacement shipped out to me That front desk kept an eye out for my package and call me the second it came in I appreciated that little kindness so much Thank you, thank you The hotel is so clean and I am a germaphobe The housekeeping sprays and disinfects the room before going in to clean The cleaning is impeccable 👌 I will be back

Lianne Buenafe

I honestly want to rate Hampton Inn & Suites Kapolei a five star, but I will make it 4/5 I will mention the downside first First, there was no microwave

I would recommend having microwave in all rooms I believe all the guests needs microwave to heat up their food Lastly, the ac Guests should be able to control the temperature in their rooms Me and my family were freezing due to how cold the room was and all we can do was wear jackets, hoodies or sweatshirts, and socksThe good side however is they have free breakfast every day, they can provide us toothbrush, toothpaste, etc (if we need one), get mini fridge, friendly & helpful staff, a swimming pool (already have clean towels for guests to ready to use outside), laundry room, a gym, and a beautiful lounge to stay at I also like how their water dispenser has that footstep to get water instead of using our fingers to pressSo overall, this still a good place to stay at It is a friendly and safe environment 🙂

Lavinia Morrison

I cannot say enough good things about this place! All of the staff are polite, friendly and professional This place is immaculateThe breakfast buffet is great

There is something for everyone The kitchen staff work tirelessly keeping the place clean and the food and beverages replenished There is a fitness center, pool and laundry room on the first door The decor is modern with very clean linesRight outside, in walking distance are a plethora of restaurants and shops!I highly recommend this hotel! ❤❤❤❤
