Not the right kind of Jamaican experience!
The only positives about this hotel are Saha (in the office), smoke friendly, and checking out early. Saha helped us out greatly when whe learnt that a staff member tried to hustle us over a $100. We booked to stay 3 nights but left after 2 nights as we simply could not afford to be so far away from alternative restaurants, beaches, amenitites. They offer a car ride into Ocho for $20 and breakfast lunch and dinner is $25 per day, drinks, and rides, tours etc are all at an extra cost as you're not within walking distance to anything. Day trip doesn't include what it says it includes. So I recommend a serious conversation prior to the day trip to clarify just exactly what charges you will be up for and that you will not be paying any more than the agreed price, and that if the tour states to include lunch, that you will be eating lunch today!

Just don't stay here!
We arrived in the evening and were given no explanation of anything at all. For example, we were given no keys and we were not told that we should not lock the main door of the house so we ended up locking out the couple staying there. We were given a room with shared bathroom (we had booked one with private bathroom). The bed had no sheets but only a couple of sarongs on a dirty-old-looking mattress. Bathroom did not look like it had been cleaned anytime recently. No hot water, only cold and low pressure. We had paid online and in the morning, before leaving, we were asked to pay cash - which we did not do, of course... Finally, from the map it almost looks like this place is close to the seaside, but it is in fact on top of a steep hill on a dirt road (bad road even to the local standards). This place is to be avoided, there are much better alternatives even on a budget.
