Clean, safe, small accommodation in Antigua
Pros:

WiFi worked well, bathrooms are always very clean. Beds were pretty comfortable and room was a good size. Great location and feels safe. Free water provided.

Cons:

Room was quite dark even with an extra lamp provided. It would be nice if there was a small communal kitchenette where you could make a basic meal or a refrigerator where you could leave some milk etc. We weren’t provided with any information about breakfast so you end up eating out for 3 meals a day since there are no facilities in the accommodation.

Pros:

everything was good but we were falsely blamed for a cracked mirror and during the whole interaction the owner was very unfriendly and ruined an otherwise good stay

Pros:

Sødt personale, der var behjælpelige med tidlig indtjekning og ændring af booking. God beliggenhed i centrum og rent på værelset og fælles toiletter.

Cons:

Det kunne godt være lidt mere tryk på bruseren, men ellers ingen klager.

Great place and staff! Really close to what I wanted 🫰🏻
Pros:

Great location and space! Great communication with the staff and very clean. We really liked the convenient location.

Cons:

Would be great just as future stay to advice the entrance measure just in case the car is wide enough to not fit, but nothing that impacted my experience 🙏

Super Lage, top Sauberkeit
Pros:

Die Zimmer waren komfortabel und geräumig, die Lage war super - direkt in unmittelbarer Umgebung zu allem Sehenswerten, aber dafür nachts sehr ruhig. hervorzuheben ist die Sauberkeit - der junge nette Mann hat wirklich ununterbrochen sauber gemacht - aus diesem Grund waren die gemeinschaftlichen Badezimmer stets sehr sauber.

Cons:

Das Frühstück war wenig - was sich aber angesichts des Preises wieder relativiert.
