The hotel is small and easy to navigate. The best part of the trip were the 2 ladies in the bar area. Very friendly and service oriented. The downfall was housekeeping and management in general. Our entire stay we had do not disturb on our room door, yet, housekeeping entered our room to put towels in the bathroom. Nothing else done, just the towels. When i brought it to management, he was helpful but only said he would let housekeeping know about it. You want to know your secure when out of the room. It just raised a red flag. The in hotel convenience store listed hours of 8am-8pm but was rarely ever open and always closed by 5pm.They also had many interns working the front desk without supervision and not muck knowledge or know where to look for an answer. I can let that slide because we've all been at that point in our lives. When you book a hotel of this class, you really do get what you paid for. Atleast Aruba is checked from our bucket list.

Terribly noisy. Unfortunately, the hotel location stands on a noisy road, with locals parked across the road chatting through the night and listening to very loud music from their car's speakers (especially at weekends). We had booked a superior room that despite the space had no real superior feeling - pretty basic tbh. Sometimes we were handed out tired beach towels, faded colours, not fluffy. It is fair to say the hotel needs a revamp from top to bottom. Staff are nice and genuinely do what they can. The pool area is okay, a bit small so at busy periods it could be crowded and perhaps even not enough loungers for everyone (ps it was not the case for us as we travelled outside peak times).

I booked for 4 days and left after the 1st night. The room looked like a dingy roadside motel. Staff was rude and cold to "us", however i watched how they dealt with other races and it was like night and day. I would never ever consider going back even it was for free.

If you enjoy loud music and motorcycles revving their engines in competition with each other (rev-off) from Thursday - Sunday night (9pm-midnight) from the parking lot across the street, this hotel is perfect for you; terrible for me, and all those I spoke to, for those 4 nights out of 7. Sadly, I was told this is the norm and there is nothing that can be done about it. I wish I knew. I asked to change rooms away from the street but my request was refused? although the hotel did not seem to be full at all. Bad customer service. Unfortunately, although the hotel is across the street from a fantastic beach, good food, and close to port/city centre (15 min. walk) and airport, the evening noise across the street in the parking lot ruined what was otherwise a fantastic and beautiful island trip. Highly recommend Aruba!! Suggestion: call the hotel and ask about the noise from Thursday to Sunday evenings to see if this has changed before you commit! If it wasn’t for the noise, I would not be writing this review.
