A beautiful boutique hotel with nice staff
Pros:

Great location
Beautiful building
Nice staff
Comfortable bed
Good communication

Cons:

Bathroom a bit small for a couple to use at the same time, understandable due to architecture of a historic building but something to bear in mind.
The breakfast offerings would benefit from a quality review

Fantastic location in a beautiful area of Antigua.
Pros:

Fantastic location in an amazing historical area of Antigua away from the crowds. Right in the centre of the old naval docks with plenty of restaurants within walking distance and two harbours full of amazing yachts and SuperYachts to dream about owning.

Two good beaches with great restaurants (LOCA on Galleons and Catherine’s at Pigeon Point, which was a nicer beach but both are good).

Would definitely recommend the area and hotel.

Cons:

There was nothing majorly that we didn’t like.

Beautiful place with wonderful staff
Pros:

Excellent location, historic site and wonderful staff.

Cons:

We stayed in the Loft room and it was very noisy. Very close to the street so from early in the morning you would hear a lot of talking. The only other thing was that the internet connection was really poor - if you are lucky enough to not need the internet when you are there, this won’t bother you too much. We had some work meetings and had to hotspot while roaming!
