Not worth the money.
Pros:

Place

Cons:

Everything else except the place. This childish better with big windows, some nice furnitures and good options for food and other facilities. It seemed like it’s a neglected hotel.

Great value and location for walking and touring, hotel food was great I recomend the fish & chips!
Pros:

The room was obviously freshley decorated and done to a very good standard, my wife loved it! The breakfast was also great and set us up well for walking Nevis.

Cons:

The outside of the building dosen't do the the inside justice but if you are spending money the rooms are the right choice 100%
