The property is beautiful. Well decorated clean. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The keycard entry to the room controlling the lights and AC was a great addition, and a good way to save energy. The included breakfast was delicious and there were many different food options offered. The ability to exchange money at the hotel instead of having to go to a bank was also a nice touch. My only negative observation is the breakfast time. Breakfast is served between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m., but the food is replenished only until 9:15 a.m. If you come down for breakfast later than 9:30 a.m., there will not be much left to eat. I understand that this is a way to save money from having to waste food, but it leaves some guests to go somewhere else for breakfast. My suggestion would be to have the breakfast time from 7:00 a.m. to 9:30. That way when the food is not replenished after 9:15 a.m., guests will know that they have to get there by then to have more options for food. The other observation is that most of the staff does not speak English. Guyana is primarily an English speaking country, so the language barrier presents an issue. The addition of a English speaking employee at the front desk when you check in helps. These issues can be overcome with English lessons for the staff. All and all, it was a great experience and I will stay there again when I visit Guyana in the future!!!

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel. Liked the rooms and the facility since it had a grocery store on the premises. However the area around the property needs cleaning. There is too much garbage strewn around the area and they can do something about it by paying someone to do cleanup, it would go a long way. I would stay there again but I need those things cleared up and there should be some more Guyanese food options for breakfast.

This wasn't the first time I was staying at this hotel. Unfortunatelly, it was very noisy stay - somebody permanetly was moving the furniture, the cleaning stuff was very loudly speaking in the halls just outside of my room. So, not really pleasant stay

Its a nice property, but the smell around the area is terrible and its dirty. The hotel needs to make sure the yards outside is kept clean and its so smells. The rooms are small. The bathroom grossed us out. The toilet is in with the shower. Never seen this before in my life and I have traveled alot. We can see that there are doing renovations. By the way the gym is above our bedroom and woke us up at 4am. The breakfast is ok, but the food is cold. This is not good.

Location was ok. Rooms were very spacious, toilet was a bit smelly. Staff for the most part was very courteous, except when I asked for water for both rooms that we had. The woman of course had to use Google translate to communicate. Room attendant was willing to give, but she (guess she was a supervisor) had a problem with it. Mind you, water bottles are replenished in the room everyday. Food was not desirable at all😔😏. Would I stay again? Probably I would😀
