Amazing food and alcohol selection. Some of the best Jamaican food I have had in ages! There are more tame options but well worth trying the homemade food as it's clear they put the effort in

All good and excellent for a 1 night stay following a local wedding reception. Breakfast was very good although I would have preferred a 9 - 10 breakfast on a Sunday morning rather than an 8 - 9
