Razoável
Pros:

A localização é excelente, pois fica perto do terminal de ônibus. É bom saber que não fica perto de uma praia apropriada para banho.

Cons:

A entrada é por uma garagem e quando tem carro fica muito imprensado para entrar. A pia está desnivelada e por isso ao lavar a louça a água cai no chão

Wonderful Stay
Pros:

I was in studio F upstairs with a double bed, microwave, kettle and coffee machine and a hot stove. Samuel, the manager is super nice and he showed me around the neighborhood in his car. It is a few blocks from downtown in a quiet area. I rented a bicycle and they delivered it at 10 am and picked it up at 4 pm on the last day. I booked it again for 2 more nights on December 29th. It is cheaper if you book directly online.

Cons:

There is a concerto of roosters at 6 am so you start your day early.

Pros:

The location was close to downtown and close to the bus terminal that takes you to the beaches. Towels were also provided which was nice. The Owner running the place is very nice and honest. He gave me good recommendations for food options, including an early Sunday breakfast spot that was key for me to catch my early flight.

Ótimo custo benefício
Pros:

Localização boa perto do centro (Oranjestad), terminal de onibus e mercados. Os anfitriões são muito solicitos e prestativos, meu voo de volta era no fim da noite, mas pude desfrutar completamente do ultimo dia pois desocupei o quarto cedo, eles guardaram as malas e no fim do dia me emprestaram um quarto que estava disponível para tomar uma ducha antes de ir para o aeroporto. Ótimo custo-benefício.

Cons:

O chuveiro é apenas uma ducha,a agua é fria, não esquenta pois não é ligado a energia elétrica. Não chegou a ser um problema porque fazia muito calor (final de dezembro) mas preferiamos regular a temperatura.

Pros:

Hola a todos los viajeros,
es un lugar con una muy buena ubicación tanto como si utilizas carro o te desplazas caminando, la terminal de transportes está muy cerca y todas las rutas son accesibles, así como el muelle, centro de la ciudad, tiendas para hacer mercado y la playa más cercana queda a 25 minutos caminando.

Los anfitriones Samuel y Laura son unas excelentes personas dispuestas a compartir contigo y ayudarte en todo lo que necesites durante tu estancia.

Nuestra parte favorita del lugar es poner tener un lugar para sentir la brisa y ver las diferentes aves que se acercan al lugar.

Disfruten de la hermosa isla y aprovechen la ubicación para caminar por la noche es muy seguro, además que su cercanía con el muelle les permitirá ver los cruceros que llegan a la isla.

Cons:

Es necesario agregar algunos implementos adicionales a la cocina.
