Unpleasant and disappointing
Pros:

The views went well. The parking facility went well. The bartender (Bahamian) was very accomodating as well as friendly.

Cons:

I was quite surprised to see refugees hanging around the hallways. There were children amongst them, who due to the lack of playing area hanged around the hallways. The room was very dated and the bed was extremely uncomfortable. The following morning during breakfast, I found the food was very measured. The general looks of the hotel was very out of date.

Pros:

Nah am Strand

Kostenfreie Parkplätze

Cons:

Das gesamte Hotel ist ziemlich in die Jahre gekommen. Schon von außerhalb macht es keinen sehr einladenden Eindruck (dreckige Fassade).

Unaufmerksames Personal: Wir wurden kein einziges Mal im Foyer gegrüßt - es war immer mit sich selbst beschäftigt.

Im gesamten war es unerträglich heiß. Selbst als draußen nur noch 20 Grad waren, hat auch einen ganzen Tag lüften nicht geholfen die Hitze herauszubekommen. Es gab nur ein winziges Fenster, welches sich nur einen Spalt öffnen ließ.

Das ist jetzt nicht Teil der Zimmerbewertung: Wir waren einmal im Restaurant essen und wir können es nicht empfehlen. Das Restaurant war fast leer, dennoch hat es über eine Stunde gedauert, bis wir das Essen bekamen. Ich hatte beispielsweise einen Burger. Das Brot war hart und das Fleisch trocken.

Great location
Pros:

Great location and the family room was plenty big enough and very clean.

Cons:

It was hard to get the water very hot, we had to run the hot tap for a long time before we could run a bath or shower.

Right now Not value for money.
Pros:

Not much to like there it’s very old.. may be 80s huge property. Just Maintained to run.
U can sleep on good bed, but not sure if hygienic air inside. Lobby and restaurants huge for good big gatherings.

Cons:

No modern even not classic.. some how everything repaired and running.
Structure and wood repairs.. rusting painted.
Overall renovation needed.
Price u pay for amenities are not valued.
