My room at the Ritz Studios was simple and had a feel that I might describe as Modern European Student Tourist. It had a small kitchenette and the furniture tended to be Scandinavian. It was functional, comfortable and generally perfect for someone who wants a room to use as a base for their outings in Willemstad. It did lack some... More

The Ritz studios do not live up to their name ! An old ice making factory converted into Ikea furnished studios. The rooms are clean but the floors have not been redone which leaves an unpleasant dirty garage like feeling. Be aware there is no hot water.Also access is not easy for some-one walking with a stick as the steps... More

This really is good value for money. We had a loft apartment and was fun. King bed nice and comfy, the kitchen worked well (cooked an awesome steak bought from Centrum Supermarket) and the bathroom clean and lounge very spacious. I wouldn't have a problem living there!! Sharon, the manager, is super-friendly and will bend over backwards to help you... More

It is hard to find a good budget deal on the net if you just want to spend a night or two in Willemstad and if you are not really a Luxury demanding person. The studios are nice, IKEA furnitures, little kitchenette and a fridge. The inly downside was the smell inside. The location is really good, ste stuff was... More

My expectation was for an apartment with a separate sleeping area. That turned out to be true. But the apartment was more like a cave, good for recovering from outings and sleeping but not for a Caribbean holiday feel. The windows weren't to the exterior; instead, they were to a wide hallway that did have windows to the outside. The... More

Couples stay in February 2012. We don't need luxury for sleeping so we booked the cheapest option available and gained value for our money. The rooms are quite dreary with concrete flooring and walls and with minimal furniture. Also our bathroom smelled like mold and ants invaded our food cabinet. However, the staff was very helpful in both cases and... More

The property has a nice and pretty patio (used to be a icecream factory) and the reception lady is friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and had a nice couch for reading. However, my room smelled of cigarette (even though it was a non-smoking room) and felt claustrophobic (just one window facing a wall). Air conditioning served its purpose... More

Booked The Ritz Studios expecting nothing fancy, but a clean quaint room. My fiancee and I arrived late and were greeted by a very nice lady at the front desk. She walked us over to our room (we booked the "Caribbean Cottage") located at the back of the property. As soon as she opened the door, the first thing I... More

The pictures are deceiving. We got a "loft" with no TV, no soap, shampoo, conditioner (remember those travel sizes that you usually get at hotels?) - there is a so-called "kitchenette", but the refrigerator did not work. We alerted the staff the very next day - it did not get fixed even though I kept going back to tell them.... More
