Perfect for proximity to Montego Bay airport a night before flying out, lovely little pool for a last dip before leaving the island. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Very close to the airport and town. Staff were great. The pool is very nice. You have private bathroom and bedroom, shared living room and great wifi as well. Great price, very old building but clean and yard is very nice with beautiful plants.

Wonderful staff, both Marilyn & Rachel (I hope I got that right, memory isn't so good at my age, lol), very friendly. The place was convenient from the airport, super clean room, good a/c & bed & had a very relaxing and clean pool & deck area with just a little view of Montego Bay. Definitely a great stay except be aware it sits on a steep hill so walking down or up from the main road - especially at night isn't for the faint of heart or stamina! LOL!!

Far from food. Unwalkable because on a steep hill so be prepared to pay for expensive taxis every time you want to leave . Room had frig which was nice but saw a big roach and checked out early. Area gates are locked from inside with a padlock and freaked me out until I realized I had a key to it. Staff was nice, and grounds were nice. Room was ok for the price .

The hotel photos didn't look like the same, the hotel is actually very small and run down. The front desk is all it really is a desk, the security isn't the best. The room was a decent size, the bathroom was very small and awkward, to the point the sink was behind the door. The room did have a/c that was plus, but then the circuit kept tripping so the a/c shut off. Then the television channels re not what we expected, and was too nervous to search for channels due to everything looking like it cost. The location of this hotel was great. The view was fabulous. You can see the airport and the ocean from a small walk. The staff was ok, not too friendly but just enough to do their job.

Miss Dorris is VERY NICE…We arrived while storming and she did not want us to have to walk in the rain and she helped with an umbrella but we were ok 👍 The room is very secure but be prepared for with your own food or beverages. DO NOT TAKE A TAXI FROM THE AIRPORT. Call Amstar and you will be safe ❤️ The TAXI ripped is off. If your phone doesn’t work in the airport go to information first! Don’t go to the taxi podium! ❤️ Again miss Dorris is very sweet and her place is VERY safe!

Pros: Front desk was friendly, sheets and towels clean, close to airport. Cons: Walls very thin. Door to adjoining room only secured with a small latch. Safe didn’t seem to be working. No instructions for the “free wifi” given. Room was tired looking and not very clean. “airport shuttle” means there may or may not be a driver available.
