2. No wifi yetBreakfast is not worth tryingSometimes bugs get into your room even you have closed the iron door -difficult to control them as its a tropical place but have to be cautious if you get a bug bite then there is a chance you may have allergic reactionParking fee is ridiculous (14$)Not a pleasant beach -lot of rocksNot sufficient pool side chairs -gets filled pretty soon.

6. The phone number on the key card got me to a call center for the Aston group of hotels, who took over 5 minutes to connect me to the front desk -- ridiculous.

7. I stayed here because I didn't want to pay the ridiculous prices being charged on the South side of the island (At least twice as much as I paid and in most cases, 3 to 4 times more for an oceanview room).
