    Location wise, it is a bit far from the main street but, it’s safe to walk around.

    The staff were friendly and helpful especially David and the lady who assisted me on the day of my departure. My room was clean and comfortable. The location is a bit far from the main street but, it’s like 10 mins. walk to the harbour and the bus terminal. Also, the complimentary breakfast was good and delicious. I had a very relaxing stay in the hotel.

    Just want a pool or cold outdoor spa becaue if is hot walking around Aruba but it's not a deal breaker.

    I was surprized and relieved at the cute botique feeling of the hotel. While I understand it is under renovation, the staff made sure we were comfortable and informed. Breakfast was so lovely and delicious. The bathroom, while small, was new and very clean.

    The complexity of the streets and of getting around the back of the hotel to park our car.

    I would have loved the room with the pink flamingos but it was nice and modern, the showerhead was a little clogged up. But other then that . Everyone was nice and helpful..

    Only one thing: their front entrance always looks dirty. Someone should wash the windows, their dusty front steps and the dirty sidewalk. Make it sparkle

    That it is close to airport and cruise port and great for walking downtown, exploring the expensive waterfront ( think jewelry stores & fancy designer stores in Renaissance Mall i.e Dolce Gabana and Gucci). It is within minutes from Wilhelmina Straat where the best restaurants in Aruba are located: Los Gauchos, Suiker Tuintje, Arends Restaurant .

    Nothing! The hotel was a bit of a stretch of the leg to achieve the downtown, but the walk was level and well lit and I'm sure the location was part of the reason it was always very quiet.

    I'm afraid I did not get the name of the young lady who attended the check in desk in the afternoons and evenings. She was an absolute gem! I hope that she receives the accolades she's earned. She gave me clear and helpful information and directions each day with regards to restaurants, museums, public transportation and even offered to come pick me up when I went out walking after dark and got myself lost! I called her to request a taxi for me, which appeared 5 minutes later. The room was on the ground floor, excellent hot water, and the restaurant and staff were delightful as well.

    Somewhat noisy with barking dog periodically. Otherwise, very quiet on the 2nd floor. Tired of walking 0.7 mile from the Oranjestad Bus terminal back to hotel after a long day at the beach. Always stopped at the Renaissance Mall along the way to use their clean restrooms.

    Excellent omelet breakfast made to order daily. Asked for a Ham & Cheese sandwich to go on last day to bring to airport. Clean rooms and lots of storage although small room. Hot showers. Modern bathroom. Easy local van from the airport that dropped me off in front of hotel for $2.60. On the return trip back to the airport, walked 2 blocks to get on Arubus past the NV ELMAR building on WilhelminaStraat to catch to the L2 southbound towards San Nicolas. Short walk 0.7 miles to the central bus terminal to catch a ride to all the beaches (Baby, Eagle, Palm, Arashi Beach). Supermarket around the corner where I picked up soda, juice and bananas. Short walk on their Main street to Djiespie's Restaurant off Caya G.G. Betuco Croes for deliciious pastelitos and a coffee shop next door.

    Love the location of this hotel, fully renovated building, room with aircon and fridge, the food at the restaurant was excellent. 10 min walking distance to the beach, Renaissance mall, Easy parking. The most valuable is the staff. Hanna, the receptionist, and Jairo, the manager, were always willing to help. Free water and coffee station at the terrace.

    The hotel as of Jan 2025 is undergoing renovations with the goal to be a boutique downtown destination. Renovated rooms are beautiful and well appointed. Rooms to be renovated may have hot water issues but comfortable, sufficiently appointed and clean.

    Excellent, communicative and assisting staff. Very clean.

    This is a really cute little boutique hotel. Very welcoming. The outdoor common spaces are designed well and great for gathering for coffee in the morning drinks in the evening or playing cards. The breakfast was excellent and you could order off the menu. Staff was very accommodating. When we asked for extra pillows, they brought us new ones. The rooms are small but had everything we needed in them. It’s not on the beach and that’s really the only negative. However, we found out that at Surfside beach, which was within walking distance they had day passes. You could get chairs and an umbrella for 12.50 a person.
