I was very skeptical about the place when i made the reservation but still decided to give it a shot. Upon arrival the Front desk staff was very helpful and the room was very clean and comfortable. I would definately come here again.

This hoe-TEL was the hottest mess I’ve ever seen….please do not confuse me for the illiterate as I do know how to spell. However, in this case, this was exactly what you’re thinking when I say “hoe” tel…I half expected louie the pimp to meet me in the parking lot to convince me of how $10 would get me $20!!! First of all, the pics on aruba’s website are photo-shopped!! That is not the front, back, side nor aerial view of the hotel itself…except for the avocado green….they forgetfully left out the pics of the vagabonds, strippers and addicts that greet you upon entry of the parking lot…the room well let’s just put it like this, you have a laminated warning sign notifying you of in the event of missing items what you will be charged starting with the T.V. for $300 on down to the face towel for $10.…the air? What air? We went in the hottest season and yet somehow they figured out how to have the individual cooling units fixed as the air never made it past the 1st bed by the front door… HOPEFULLY, the EDUCATED will get my SARCASIM as that is all you‘ll be left with once you‘ve booked and pull up to the hotel!!! And the travel website that I used did not try to accommodate me either….as a matter of fact, in the words of ’shante’ the manager, (WHO'S THE ONLY SHANTE IN THERE COMPANY BTW OR SO SHE SAID BECAUSE SHE REFUSED TO PROVIDE ME WITH A LAST NAME) it was my responsibility to know what I‘m booking and not take their word for it!!! I should‘ve known...when I had to call the company and hound them about not getting my email confirmation that that was a sign to cancel the reservation!!!

Room was basic and functional. Beds were comfortable. We loved Liam, the bar tender. Breakfast is inexpensive and tasty but not available Monday and Tuesday. We easily flagged down taxis to take us to the strip and airport. It's funky and full of history. It is a bit away from the main part of the strip but only a $15 taxi ride (the traffic jams made the ride more expensive).

We found this place online and the pictures online are VERY MISLEADING. do not stay here, Beds were sqeaky, Renovation not finished, very noisy, elevator closes on you, even the dining expierience was not good. Aruba Hotel & Spa, didnt see the spa anywhere . The only thing that was half way decient was the honeymoon suite.. Your better off staying at a Motel 6 or something, this Aruba is not a HOTEL at all.....
