“Just OK”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

From what I've seen in other reviews there aren't many other options in Georgetown so I can't complain too much...but this type of hotel is around $90/night in the US and I paid $120/night for 3 nights. Most of the hotel is very drab, but clean. I felt safe in the hotel at all times. There are no dining options walking distance...the hotel has a restaurant that is OK. The rooms seem refurbished but have absolutely no personality. Everything looks new...but the bare necessities. Internet connectivity is only in the lobby. The mosquitoes in the room drove me crazy all three nights despite my attempts to get rid of them.

Service at the reception was very lackadaisical while the service at the bar and restaurant was very friendly. The best part of the hotel is probably the pool deck and patio area...but the pool was closed...and the gym was closed. Keep in mind that this was around Christmas so people apparently shut things down in Georgetown...this is common I guess,

The location is central but I recommend taking a taxi everywhere unless you are accompanied or adventurous. Taxi's are very cheap and reliable. Make sure the hotel calls the taxi for you and keep that number. Use that company for your ride back.

I would try another place next time...

“not what it offers”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2010

This hotel does not look like its photos. It's a lot more basic.

We chose it for the facilities offerred - bar, restaurant, internet, pool. However, this hotel thinks nothing of hiring these facilities out to a private party, and guests cannot then use them. ("Thank you for your understanding"???????????) No refund for not getting the things you've paid for; in fact, they charged us twice by mistake. It took 3 months and a lot of hassle to get our money back. Emails are ignored; you have to phone.

Was told hotel was renovated..Yes it was renovated becoming a disco club, not the hotel...Big mistake, never again, pay a few dollars more and use another hotel, It's worth it...music rocks the room until 4am..Not a family place..It's nothing but a disco playpen...look at the photos of brown water, (Obviously not treated) Can you imagine eating the food which is washed with the same water....definitely not recommended....
