It's walkable .. The issue is the name of the place is so tiny you cannot easily locate . Also , no communication sent to you via e-mail. If you don't have a roaming phone in that instant you might be sleeping in the street ... I have to ring them as no reception only through phone calll ..

**There is NO parking on site** You drive around and try to find parking in the city and pay for it each time. We assumed that “parking on site” meant that there is a place to park “on site”. Unfortunately not, and it was hassle each night when we got to the hotel, we had to walk at least a few blocks each way.

The entryway to the Island Apartments was dirty and littered. Once you entered one door, there were bags of trash and recycling awaiting you. When you climbed the stairs, you could see water damage on the walls. Our room had hair in it. We had two towels and asked for more for our kids, and housekeeping said they couldn't accommodate it. We left and went to another hotel without a refund. Couldn't do it! We stayed in 5 hotels during our trip touring the island, and this one was by far the worst.

We loved everything about this location. Very clean apartment, even though it feels more like a small dorm room. We enjoyed all the shops, bars and restaurants one street up. Will definitely stay here again when we come back.

Ver clean and modern apartments. Beds are super comfortable. Kitchen was adequate. Great downtown location. Walkable to most attractions. Would definitely stay again. Had to walk up steep steps with luggage. A bit noisy at night, due to being on a main street. A little hard to locate- signage could be better.

Good communication with hotel owner

Had a booking on the 20th of feb but had to arrive earlier due to weather conditions and the owner was very flexible when i called him and asked if he had a room for me to stay in until my booked room was available and got me a room for 2 nights until my room was available

Communication and willing to assist during work hours was great. Shower and bathroom sink weren’t draining, and help would not arrive until after we checked out next morning. Noisy neighborhood. Even in early morning hours.

It’s ok for one night

The location is in good proximity to all the major sites and clean. Close to everything you need. The apartment was fine for one night, but I do not recommend this place for families. It’s so small. Noise coming from the street below will keep you up all night. And street parking was difficult to find. Also, it’s on the second floor so be prepared to haul your luggage up the stairs.
