It was not that accessible and struggled to use public bathroom near foyer due to heavy doors. Was very slippery when when and struggled to walk with crutches. Was put in furtherst room on wing and struggled to walk that far dispite informing prior i had differculty with mobility. I was told if i need an actual room that is accessible i will need to book 2 rooms and be charged double! I was unable to open and push door myself as too heavy and almost fell trying. From 6.30 every morning heard glass bottles being smashed and till 11.30-12 at night heard kids running around upstairs and chairs scrapping. Was very noisy. Not able to cater for dietary needs for lunch and dinner as had cross contamination. Room size was good and handy to have microwave in room as couldn't eat much on island. That is probably all that was good. Overall very disappointed in my stay

The hotel is well kept for an older property. Bed isn’t very comfortable but the room is clean and spacious. I thought we will get a higher floor based off the description of the type of room we booked but was provided a room on the 5th floor. Still great views though. We were allowed to check in way before check in time which was amazing. The staff were friendly, professional and always smiling. Haven’t had such great service in a long time. Loved the pool and facilities. The only disappointing thing is the food. Price aside (which is expected for an island), the food was either bland one night or too salty another night. Menu options were basic and uninteresting.
