Good times in Naval!!!
The pictures don’t do it justice. The furniture and cabinets were a bit worn, but the room was clean and comfortable. Reception took care of a couple of small issues I did have. Like most places I would have enjoyed a few more pay Premium channels. The property was clean and tidy. The pool could use some attention. The restaurant and new bar were excellent. The staff was very attentive and very professional…. Also very cute and funny!! I will staying here again!! Thanks everyone!!

Property is older and not well maintained or kept. Parking sucked. Restaurant had limited food items available from the menu. Breakfast items was also very limited. Pool water smelled like oil / gas. Customer service was non-existent. I should’ve done my homework and gone with other options that I found out about later.

The property has an excellent restaurant. The food we ordered for dinner was delicious especially the grilled fish. The big problem is that because of this it’s very popular and the restaurant is critically understaffed. As for the rooms, they are ok; the aircon is very noisy and not powerful enough for the room size. I booked two rooms but at check-in they insisted that I only had one until eventually they found the second booking. Initially I was given the wrong room (twin beds instead of a queen bed). The property also advertises a ‘pool’ but it was badly maintained and looked unclean. In summary; the restaurant is excellent, the rest of the experience was mediocre.

Great stay
Was there for only a 3 day stay, but i could have stayed longer. Housekeeping kept our room clean, the in house restaurant was handy for something small or an actual meal. Staff was great. Hope to be back again next year.

The rom was really nice, clean and big, good internet, nice food and restaurant. The pool wasn’t in operation, there is building work going on and you don’t get a sea view room if you book one. They may give you a mountain view which is ok.

I liked the location and also the room I had was bigger than the last time I stayed here in ‘17. It’s currently being renovated and the pool was not being cleaned as often as I remember a couple years ago I can tell a difference in the upkeep. My room was located over the pool and it was a little higher in price but there was no free breakfast included, so in my opinion it should be included in the price.Naval doesn’t have a lot of choices so I would recommend this hotel to stay at. The staff is attentive in my opinion and this hotel is not perfect but nice for this town.
