Hotel Paradise suites has so much potential as a property but, unfortunately, has apparently fallen into the sort of neglect you would expect to see in a two star or less property. On the positive side, the artwork spread throughout, from the check in area to the rooms, is really awesome and captivating. As for the Rose themselves, we were first shown to a room, which by the way we were paying more than $250 per night for, that was frighteningly rundown, including broken window blinds, appliances in the kitchenette that looked like they had been salvaged from a junkyard, no water dispenser and a back side courtyard, so to speak, that looked to be nothing more than a dumping place for broken down appliances and bathroom fixtures. We asked for and were – thankfully – moved to a larger room that seemed to have been cared for more, but we still lacking in such basic amenities as a single lamp, drinking water, coffee maker, and any cooking receptacle other than a small frying pan with no lid. Despite being instructed to put all toilet paper into the trashcan next to the trash, we did not see a housekeeper for the first three days of our visit, eventually removing the trash ourselves, asking for either a broom to sweep the sand from the floor or for the floor to be swept and hunting down a housekeeping cart to look for a new set of towels. We have nothing against rugged accommodations, if priced accordingly. Not the case here…
