My stay at this hotel was quite unsatisfactory. I faced significant issues with check-in and customer service, which put a damper on the experience right from the start. The location is decent, being close to various attractions, but the apartment itself is in dire need of renovation. Overall, I wouldn't recommend staying here based on my experience.

The apartment was okay in size but had a musty smell and felt quite old and tired. The decor left a lot to be desired, and climbing eight flights of stairs with luggage was exhausting.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at this resort. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beach and shopping, which I loved. However, the rooms were not as tidy as I would have hoped, and we encountered some cleanliness issues. The service was friendly, but at times, quite disorganized, leaving us waiting for assistance. Overall, it’s a decent option but not without its flaws.

Overall, I found Aruba Surf to be a great value for money with its fully equipped apartments located just two blocks from the ocean. While the room felt quite basic and spartan, it was perfectly clean and functional for our needs. The pool area and patio were immaculate and enjoyable to use. However, if you're looking for something luxurious, this might not be the place for you.
