If you are looking for a quiet stay, be sure to book a room at the rear of the property. The front of the hotel is subject to traffic noise from the road and exuberant voices of those enjoying late night excursions in town. This is especially true on weekends and during peak season.
Although the public spaces in this hotel are air conditioned, the guest rooms are not, which can make for a dreadful night’s sleep. When the weather gets warm, so do the guest rooms and there’s really no way to cool them down.
