Excellent value for the money. We had a large one-bedroom suite with a kitchenette, wraparound balcony and an excellent view of the surrounding islands. Very convenient location less than 100 feet from water taxis. The included hot breakfast was good. Our room needed another lamp or two at night. Although one reviewer complained about plumbing, water pressure is generally weak throughout Bocas and that is not a characteristic of just this hotel.

Suite easily accommodated our family of five with the additional single, rollaway bed. Bathroom was clean and modern, hot water, good plumbing. Air conditioning worked well, lots of room to spread out. Staff was terrific, friendly, helpful and great at recommending places to go and things to see. Location is central to the main strip, and removed from too much traffic, felt very cozy and convenient. Able to walk to all of the water taxi docks, restaurants, stores and day tour boat locations. Not a great view from the 2nd story, could not see the water due to adjacent buildings... but it did not distract from the experience.

It was clean, homey, relaxing and the staff friendly and helpful. I needed a bit of modern after 6 months of living with minimal everything... The hot water, extremely comfy bed and delicious breakfasts were just the taste of normalcy I needed.

El hotel es moderno y supera lo que se puede encontrar en la ciudad de Bocas. El personal de recepción. No se me proporcionó la habitación reservada y, aunque mostré la documentación de mi reserva por Booking, se me dijo que no era válida. Me dieron evasivas y largas y no resolvieron la situación aduciendo que el hotel estaba lleno y ofreciéndome otra habitación al segundo día que tampoco se correspondía con lo reservado. Desde esa perspectiva, un desastre.

Las instalaciones del hotel son excelentes, la habitacion que tome era muy comoda, amplia y muy linda, con todo lo que necesitaba. El desayuno es bueno aunque podria ser un poco mas abundante. La ubicacion excelente, cerca de todo pero sin ruidos molestos. El personal de recepcion del hotel podria ser un poco mas calido y servicial para con el huesped. En 5 dias el pueblo de Bocas sufrio dos cortes de luz (30 a 60 minutos cada uno). El hotel no contaba con luces de emergencia ni velas para proveer a sus huespedes, tendrian que tenerlo en cuenta.

Las habitaciones del hotel son muy bonitas y cómodas El servicio fatal, el personal de recepción muy maleducado, el servicio de limpieza nos dejó a medias la habitación y tuvimos que avisar de que nos la terminaran. Al llegar pese a haber confirmado varias veces la reserva por mail, no lo tenian claro tampoco. Tienen problemas para pagar con tarjeta (el datáfono no les funciona bien, les dimos 7 tarjetas diferentes y ninguna les valía) y en lugar de intentar solucionártelo te dicen que el problema es que tú no tienes dinero. Por suerte hay un banco cerca y pudimos sacar el dinero en efectivo pero nos trataron fatal. La responsable de recepción, una mujer llamada Carmen Campbell, en lugar de ayudar se limitó a reirse de nosotras, una lástima porque el hotel está muy bien ubicado y con una buena gestión del mismo seguro que sería un placer alojarse allí, pero si quieres eficacia y un buen trato recomiendo que busques otro alojamiento pues aquí no lo vas a encontrar.

A suíte é espaçosa e acomoda com conforto dois casais. A cozinha oferece condições para que se faça as refeições no apartamento e a vista é muito bonita. O café da manhã, embora feito com carinho, apresenta-se com pouca variedade e pequena quantidade.

Las habitaciones son nuevas y modernas, y estan muy limpias. La suite muy confortable. Aunque el hotel no tiene piscina, está al lado de los transportes en barca y tours por las islas, que uno no debe perderse! El desayuno, tipo americano, lo sirven a la carta, lo cual es un problema en temporada alta, pues lo sirven en el bar, demasiado pequeño, y tardan bastante... Tampoco me gustó excesivo volumen de la música en el bar durante el desayuno, aunque el camarero la bajó un poco a mi peticion.

Die Lage des Hotels ist prima und man ist unmittelbar im Geschehen der Insel und dennoch war es ruhig. Geschäfte, Restaurants und auch die Bootsanleger sind prima zu Fuß erreichbar. Unser Zimmer war sehr schön eingerichtet und gut ausgestattet. Wenn man von den negativen Punkten, die unser Zimmer betraffen, absieht, ist es ein tolles Hotel und hätte unseren Erwartungen voll entsprochen. Wir hatten ein Zimmer im Erdgeschoss, welches leider extrem und deutlich über ein für Tropen "normales" Maß muffig bzw. Feucht roch. Auch lüften bzw. Die Klimaanlage half da nichts. Dies ist scheinbar auch dem Personal bewusst gewesen, denn am zweiten Tag hatte man uns eine Duftlampe ins Zimmer gestellt, welches den Geruch zumindest etwas erträglicher machte. Trotzdem hat unser komplettes Gepäck den Geruch aufgenommen. Die Matratze, welche an für sich sehr bequem war, hatte zudem scheinbar eine Art Plastiküberzug, den man bei jeder Bewegung hörte. Beide Punkte haben sich für uns daher deutlich auf den Komfort ausgewirkt, so dass auch das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis nicht mehr passte. Hinzu kam, dass das Personal nicht sonderlich freundlich war. Unser Hinweis beim Check-Out auf den Geruch im Zimmer wurde leider nur mit einem "We appreciate your feedback" abgetan (keine Erklärung, kein "We are sorry").

Las camas y almohadas, super confortables. Desayunar con el sol pegado a la espalda; una cortina hacia la calle, sería una buena inversión.

Bons déjeuners, vue sur la mer, grand balcon. Facilité d'accès aux diverses activités. Personnel en général tres courtois. Terrasse au bar très agréable. Peu de rangement dans la chambre et salle de bain. Lavage des planchers insuffisant.

- 24Std. besetzte Rezeption (konnte mir so um 2 Uhr nachts sogar noch etwas zu Trinken besorgen) - Frühstück á la Carte - kann angenehm in der Bar mit Terrasse eingenommen werden -Viele Restaurants und Bars in unmittelbarer Nähe, auch die Bootsanlegestelle ist in unmittelbarer Nähe -sehr schöne Zimmerausstattung, angenehmes Design Das Hotel liegt direkt an der Uferpromenade der Insel Colon, welche nicht unbedingt ein karibisches Idyll ist. Würde daher kein Hotel mehr auf dieser Insel wählen.
