Room was very clean, all the necessary amenities.
Staff nice, we had no issues at all. Didn't get an opportunity to actually talk to staff at all other than check in and check out.
Clean room, very close to everything (walking distance), the staff is great and the best customer service. The hotel itself is older but has been upgraded. The fireplace is a nice touch and the complimentary breakfast ( bagels, sweet bread, tea, coffee, yogurt and fresh fruit). Spent two nights there with my mother. We enjoyed our stay.
Super cute room. The building itself is old (the cool kind of old though lol) but the room is updated well. We ended up with a private balcony which was an awesome surprise. Can’t beat the location. We walked to everything. Had a great stay for our first time on the island.
Staff was very helpful and top notch. The jacuzzi upstairs is so cute and I felt like I had the whole island to myself. The room was super cute with a balcony overlooking the plaza square below. Definitely plan on visiting the Metropole again!
Everything was wonderful from the complementary breakfast to the massages next door. We had a quiet room with a decent view of the town. Would definitely go back.

It was OK. Bed was comfortable;; great shower water pressure; staff was friendly and helpful. Nice to have the spa right there. Nothing out of the ordinary.
The hot tub was small and not hot enough. One of our rooms was too accessible to people from the street walking by, not real secure. Very centrally located.
