I had to call maintenance 4 times in 5 days because of dysfunctional services (shower, safe, wet floors); management was extremely rude saying that I was probably lying about it just to get a refund (I never asked for one!). Much better value, cleaner, better management comparable hotels: The Mill, Divi Phoenix, Tamarijn & Amsterdam ...
I have mixed feelings about this hotel. It is a good value and located in a decent area near restaurants, beach, and all the more expensive resorts which are accessable even though you dont stay there.
They have a very nice lady available providing information on the Island and will tell you about the many activities available, they will even ...
I stayed here in 2005 and it was the nastiest place I have ever stayed. The floors were so dirty we put towels down. Never saw a vacume just a broom. Fixtures were rusted. Service was awful and I got sick. Would never stay again!
I love that it is so close to food, beach, and shopping. I don't like that it is not directly on the beach, but it is only a short walk which isn't that bad. Only about 100 yards.

Best Place On Earth!!

I loved this place. Everything was perfect - the staff, the beach, the food, everything. Trust me, if you're going to Aruba, this is the place to be. Low prices are key point here. It's very family oriented. There's things for people of all ages. Awesome location: right by the beach. Of course, you'll hate it if you hate ocean. ...

We're anxious to go for the 5th time!!

We have stayed at the other fancy and very expensive hotels in Aruba. They are lovely but way over priced for the time of year that we go. We started going to Brickell Bay 4 years ago and are very satisfied with the cleanliness as well as the courteous staff. It is very much like a Holiday Inn or Howard Johnson's at home. The thing that ...

Great business travel option
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/03/05
The front desk service was excellent. When my reservation at another nearby resort was lost due to a snafu with an online travel booking, Brickell Bay picked up the slack and offered me a room. The night manager was a very helpful and gracious host, and the reservations manager was very flexible about allowing me to extend my stay by one ...

Only one towel in our room on arrival. Took 2 days to have our room serviced. No ammenities: blow dryer, telephone that worked, vending machines. Limited front desk staff so service was slow. Rooms were very musty. Had a very nice pool area. Nice dining all around the hotel.
