“Good basic hotel, good value, not in the "big hotel" area.”

If your purpose is business, this is a nice basic clean hotel. If you want to be "on" rather than "close" to the beach, go for the larger chain hotels on the western side of the island.

“Tolerable hotel”

Convenient location to the airport. Breakfast buffet is good. It's good for a short business trip. The rooms aren't very clean. Go to Nikky's across the street for dinner! Overall, it's ok but is overpriced.

“Less than satisfied”

The hotel was on a very busy roundabout. The airconditioner was very old and barely kept the room cool. There where remodeling in the middle of the night. I will not stay there again. I have three more trips there.

“All in all, happy”

My only other comment would be, if a hotel is advertising a particular feature, i.e. pool, satelite TV, selfcatering facilities etc., it should make sure that, the expectations created are then met.

“Good if you are on a tight budget.”

The hotel needs to be updated for sure. But the suite we had was very spacious and functional. We got this hotel on a last minute notice. I would not bring little children with me to this hotel 'cause they will be disappointed if they ever been to other "All Inclusive" hotels. Then again, if you are on a tight budget and need hotel on a last minute, this is the one for you.

Area recommendations
You must go to Baby Beach if you are in Aruba!!! It is most beautiful beach I've been to in Carrebian. Also, visit Natural Bridge, Natural Pool and do Del Palm Island tours(full day). Have good time in One Happy Island!!!

“Need a COLD shower?”

Place is an old hotel that is very affordable...we wanted to stay an extra night in Aruba so we booked online. The rooms are old and run down with crappy beds, free breakfast was nice. It works in a pinch, but would not book a week there!

Area recommendations
You can stay almost anywhere in Aruba and have no worries. It is one of, if not the safest islands you can visit. It is truely paradise....

“Talk of the town”

The hotel manager was very hands-on and helpful. The staff were generally very pleasant and accommodating of any needs. The hotel is close to the airport, so convenient for short layovers.
