More food options would be greatly appreciated. The property has wildlife roaming and a few deer onsite.

While our stay in STX had us at a friends house, we got to experience some of The Buccaneer's amenities. Access was simple: a quick mention to the guard that we were dining at the restaurant, and we were welcomed into the resort. We spent time at Mermaid Beach, soaking in the sun and clear waters. Although we did not use the pool since we weren't hotel guests, the beach offered plenty of enjoyment. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the food was consistently good. Sitting on the patio, we enjoyed our meal with an unforgettable ocean view. It's easy for expectations to be high when visiting a destination resort, but it's important to remember the challenges of island logistics. Considering that nearly everything arrives by boat, the locals do a truly commendable job of supporting tourism and providing guest with their best possible experience. read more

I stayed here recently for a wedding, and while this may be the nicest resort on St. Croix, that's grading on a very generous curve. If you're used to mid- to high-end resorts on other Caribbean islands, this place won't hold up in terms of value, service, or basic execution. Check-in was a mess. We booked our room as part of the wedding block, showed up with a confirmation in hand, and were told they couldn't find our reservation. A 15-minute backroom search later, they "found" it, but the room wasn't ready... at 5 PM. Instead of offering us say a complimentary bar drink or spa discount, we got a vague "we'll get it ready soon." We killed two hours in the lobby waiting. The room itself was a throwback to summer camp. The A/C unit is incredibly loud, something everyone in the wedding party complained about. We found a millipede on night one, and what looked unmistakably like mouse droppings. We requested a deep clean the next day. Despite hanging the "service room now" sign and confirming multiple times, housekeeping just didn't show up. The resort has a handful of restaurants. Service was generally friendly, but painfully slow. Dinner at the main restaurant took over an hour to arrive after ordering, and the table next to us waited 90 minutes. At the Mermaid Café, menu descriptions didn't match what arrived (a curry coconut pasta that had no coconut, a mango salad without mango). The banana shake was decent. As for breakfast, it's complementary, but if you show up after 8 AM, expect slim pickings. Fruit bowls -- on a tropical island, mind you -- were often empty, and when there was fruit, it was supermarket melon: cantaloupe, honeydew, watermelon, occasionally pineapple. Where was the mango, the papaya, the kiwi? Hot trays were routinely left empty, sometimes for 15 minutes or more before being refilled. The private beaches are probably the strongest selling point, uncrowded, with drinks service (which was mostly fine). The gym was clean, well-equipped, and in good shape. The resort itself is spread out over a large property with a golf course and tennis courts, which makes for pleasant walks. A few operational quirks worth noting: The resort is entirely cashless, but everywhere off-resort is cash-only, including unregulated cabs where drivers make up their own rates. Bring plenty of cash. There's a shuttle (golf carts or mini vans) to get around the hilly property. It was prompt maybe 80% of the time. A few instances where we had to call two or three times and wait 20+ minutes, so allow extra time if you have to be somewhere. The staff were mostly great -- shoutout to Brad K. and a few of the bartenders. Final take: if you're in St. Croix for a wedding or family event, you may end up here by default. But if you're choosing between this and other islands like Grenada, Turks and Caicos, or Aruba in a similar price range, this won't deliver the same value or experience. Private beaches and a good gym aren't enough to make up for mouse poop in the room and empty breakfast buffets. I get why some people leave five-star reviews here. It's probably the best St. Croix has to offer. But when you're paying premium prices, you're not just comparing it to "not being on vacation," you're comparing it to other tropical resorts, and on that scale, it's a miss. read more

I booked three nights and stayed there one. The room was trash. Room 223 looked like it was part of a cheap motel. The only chair in the room was worn out and looked at least 50 years old, a basic bathroom with a tub and shower curtain, the thermostat didn't work and it was freezing. Opened the outer door and the floor with dirty grout became wet and slippery. There was no place to set suitcases except on the floor beside the bed and then there was no room to walk. A little old TV was encased over the coffee bar. I was shocked. Looked nothing like the pics advertised. Although I left after one night I was charged for two at over $1300. Food was nasty and overpriced. The price of drinks was ridiculous. Over priced and highly over rated. That is my experience. read more

Stayed 3 nights on their Summer Savings special, when the bill arrived on the last day, there was a $50/day electricity surcharge (total $150), plus another $50+ taxes and fees each day resulting in the room surcharges and fees being more than $100/day. This was not indicated anywhere prior to my booking. The resort needs some tlc. My room 226 had a large, very noticeable, waterspot on the ceiling. The carpets throughout the hotel were also stained. Food prices at the resort were exorbitant. My husband's beer was $11, a salad for $21 with no protein? For comparison, I also stayed on the same visit at Carambola for two days, it is rustic on the outside, but more modern and well-kept rooms and facilities overall. Food was also reasonably priced. The best thing about The Buccaneer resort-customer service was awesome. Always a friendly, smiling courteous face, from the front desk to the servers. Thank you Doris, a server in the Terrace for making me feel welcome and making sure I was taken care of. Hubby played both golf courses, he said Carambola was better, lusher greens, better prices. read more

Waening: Stay away from 2nd floor rooms facing the front at The Buccaneer, St. Croix! I checked into the main building and thought I'd be getting a relaxing stay... nope. Got woke up by loud golf carts, slamming car doors, and loud phone talks. Went to front desk to complain and got a major attitude. One staff member (tall guy with glasses) was super unhelpful and basically argued with me . If you want sleep, avoid 2nd floor front-facing rooms like the plague. Not worth it. read more

I was disappointed by the buffet breakfast. While the views of the water are gorgeous, it's hard to justify spending $45 on a buffet that was mostly empty. Even though we came on the later side of breakfast, options were so limited and most of the food was gone and not replenished while we were there. What I did have was fine, but it's overpriced for what you're getting and I cannot in good conscience recommend coming back here. read more

STOP AND DO NOT PASS GO! I don't know who in the hell would think this is a luxury property, but they must be trying to emolliate their disappointment in what they thought was a great decision. The place is dated; the rooms smell of mold; the staff is perfunctory and robotic, with the exception of a few; the property is hella isolated, so you'll be spending a fortune on taxi rides in vans that smell like azz; and the food is BELOW mediocre and OVERpriced; Don't be fooled! The ENTIRE island of St. Croix is beautiful, so you don't need the feigned pretentiousness of a property that relies on the same beauty found all across the island. Stay in town, and be close to everything without the worry of commuting to this dump before 9 pm, which is when ridiculous surcharges ($50 + original fare), kick in. We couldn't wait to check out and head to greener pastures in Puerto Rico. If you golf or play tennis, I hear they have day passes. Get one of those, call it a day. Smooches! read more

Stayed at this resort for my mother in laws birthday. Here is the good and bad of our stay and experiences. THE GOOD Beaches are clean and nice. Pools are clean and water is warm. Rooms are spacious and bathrooms are huge. Continental breakfast was great. Landscaping is well kept. Dinner at The Terrace was good and portions were big. Food was cooked very well. THE BAD Mermaid restaurant was awful. Food was overcooked and unseasoned. This was for all four of our dishes. 20% gratuity is added to everything. Including if you order a single cocktail at the bar. I always tip, but let me choose the amount. The restaurants will close and no one will call you to tell you if you have reservations so you can change plans. The property is dated. Especially for what they charge. Limited beach swimming area due to reefs. Seating at pool is limited. This did not affect us because we were there during the off season but if you are here when it is busy you better get a chair early. Check in and out took forever. In a world where most hotels can get you checked in in less than 5 minutes and where you do not need to actually go to the front desk to check out, the Buccaneer is severely slacking in this area. The room air conditioner was loud. STAFF The staff I am rating separately and is the reason for my 3 stars. We came into contact with very few staff that were pleasant. Most of them had an attitude and could really benefit from some customer service training. When someone is rude to you it really puts a damper on your mood and that should never happen at a resort like this. They failed this category IMO. read more

I had to stay here for my son's tennis tournament and could not wait to leave. Everything is terrible: very weak a/c in the rooms, shabby furniture, broken sinks, bad Wifi and cell service, and extremely limited food options. Don't come on a Monday or Tuesday if you have to come here at all because the only restaurant open for lunch and dinner is the most awful place: The Mermaid. Bad food and the worst possible service you can imagine. Some of the food servers are very sweet, and the shuttle drivers are all nice too. In fact, if you pay the $15 each way, they will take you to a nearby grocery store, so you can buy food to keep in your room. You will need it!!! read more

Our family stayed at this lovely property for 4 nights, starting on Valentine's weekend. The Buccaneer is not your run-of-the-mill property that one is accustomed to if you only stay at hotel families like Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt, etc. Instead, The Buccaneer is a charming, expansive property with various types of accommodations ranging from Ocean Front Rooms, Family Cottages, rooms and suites in the Great House (where you check in), and more. Our check in process was smooth. When we entered the Great House, we saw hand sanitizer dispensers and signs on the floor indicating where to stand and wait, socially distanced. The gentleman who checked us in was very professional and we were also greeted by Nadia, the Director of Front Office. The whole check in process went smoothly and we were offered complimentary rum punch while we wait for another representative of the hotel to get freed up, to lead us to our room down the hill. We stayed in an Ocean Front Room on the western side of the property and it offered up close views of the ocean, was very close to the pool, and is a bit more secluded location than other room types (which meant a lower chance of encountering other guests). The room itself represented the island vibe very well. I would add that the room did feel "lived in" - it was not shiny or updated recently - but we took that in stride. The room also had a door that opened to our own veranda which had two lounge chairs. Our beds were super comfortable, and the A/C kept us adequately cool during our stay. The room was spacious enough for the 3 of us and had a couple of small tables at which we could work, read, check emails, etc. There was also more seating/lounging at the window. The room also had a mini fridge and coffee bar area along with a jug filled with water and ice cubes in a bucket. There was no microwave in the room. The bathroom contained all the standard items (lotion, shampoo, soap, etc.) and featured dual sinks and a spacious countertop area on which we all could easily keep our toiletries without crowding. Included in our stay was a daily breakfast buffet at The Terrace Restaurant (located in the Great House). It features a buffet (the staff serve you) as well as eggs you can have made to order. Along with the buffet, they also brought out cut mixed fruits and juices of our choice along with the standard water and coffee. The breakfast buffet featured many of the same items each day - danishes, muffins, eggs with and without cheese, sausage, bacon, French toast, pancakes, & home fries - plus some daily specials. During our stay, daily specials included salt fish, johnny cakes, breakfast burritos, and biscuits & gravy. While the breakfast was complimentary, tipping was encouraged, and we gladly did. All the servers were very nice, and some made extra small talk or cracked a funny line or two. While I wouldn't call the breakfast "gourmet", it was satisfying and certainly fueled us up each day before we headed out. The only other dining facility that was open during our stay was the Mermaid Restaurant. The food there was pretty good and, again, the staffers were super friendly. We only had 2 dinners at the Mermaid as we opted to dine out for lunches and some dinners. The pool area by our room was not as large as you may expect at some other properties but there was never a glut of people and we swam at times when no one else was in the water (even when there were a few folks lounging nearby). There is a towel bar area to grab more towels from. While not large, the pool area was well maintained, attractive, and comfortable. The pool does have a true deep end and there was no lifeguard on duty (which we knew would be the case). Beauregard's on the Beach (an outdoor bar) is also just steps from the pool, and it was open our first few days on the property. I believe they said it's open Friday thru Sunday and it was a great spot to grab a refreshing drink, hang out in the shade, and catch the nice ocean breeze and views. The bartender was super nice and mixed great drinks each time. They do offer light fare you can nosh on but those are lunch items from The Mermaid's menu. Still, if you don't want to trek over to Mermaid and/or want a different scene, Beauregard's is a great option when it's open. Though some of the restaurants are closed at this time, we didn't have any complaints - again, since we intended to (and did) go offsite to dine at local restaurants. Nadia and her team as well as all the staff we encountered were supremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating, The concierge was very helpful in securing us dinner reservations on site when we opted to dine there as well as making several useful recommendations of where to dine offsite. All in all, this was a wonderful getaway at a unique, friendly, comfortable property. Should we return to St. Croix, we won't hesitate to return to The Buccaneer! read more

Not our first time here and we couldn't wait to come back. Now I'm wondering why. It's all a mixed bag this time. The food in the main restaurant is mixed: the entrees we had were fantastic. The $20 bruschetta was insulting in quality, presentation, and price. The beach this morning was beautiful and worth all of the travel time. After lunch it seems a local group or large family is having their outing on the beach so gone is the quiet, peaceful atmosphere we travelled so long to enjoy. After reading other reviews I've learned that the beach is indeed open to the public, so that just adds insult to those of us spending $800+ per night, because most of the value to me was the setting and atmosphere. What a shame that a beautiful st Croix beach is embracing the crowded Jersey beach vibe. Some of the staff are really nice. Some... The cottage or whatever this is properly called is ok. As others mentioned it's dated but comfortable. Room service for clean linens and towels would be nice at this price, and so would a working drain in the tub, but maybe I need to reset my expectations. Or go elsewhere next time. read more

The Hotel is very nice and the beaches in Saint Croix are all public access. I have a second home on Saint Croix, love the island, and used to enjoy going to the beach at the Buccaneer Hotel and I thought that renting lounge chairs on the beach for $10 each was a fair trade. Last month I took myself, my wife, and two close friends there to rent chairs, have lunch and drinks, and sit on the beach and rent lounges, and enjoy pina coladas in our rented lounge chairs. For years we've been playing golf, and having lunch and dinners and supporting the Buccaneer Hotel. I couldn't have been more disappointed when the beach attendant asked for an exorbitant $35 per lounge chair for four adults! I wrote the hotel and they said they would discuss the issue and I never heard back; and I'm now disinclined to ever go back. That day the hotel lost lunch for four, plus drinks on the beach over a $35 per lounge chair fee or a ridiculous $140 for four. Had the fee remained the same, at $10 each, they could have enjoyed a few more hundred dollars from our lunch and beach drinks. Very Disappointing and a silly business decision. read more

Stayed at the hotel for four days for a conference. Slept in beach room with an amazing view. Seems like bad reviews are for value or for beach access for non hotel guests. Quick helpful review below. Pros -great breakfast included in room charge -insane view of the water from our room -Amazing service: CJ at mermaid beach, Melrose, and Doris made the trip amazing with their great service and smiles. -Grounds are immaculate and clean -air conditioning in room worked amazingly well -no mildew smell in room -hot water was plentiful -Sunday brunch -the people are amazing! Cons -Food can take a while at the beach. It's worth it (mahi mahi bites yum) but expect a little wait -Room we stayed in was not as new as some other resorts in other island destinations, but they were tidy and AC works. And beach view was incredible Ask for a beach room if you want an awesome view or go for renovated if you want something newer. Melrose is amazing. He claps for you as you get breakfast and makes you realize you're lucky to just BE. read more

It's one of the best resorts currently open on St Croix, although it seems only about half of the hotels and resorts have reopened two years after Hurricane Maria. The staff is friendly and helpful. The property has its own generator so it doesn't suffer from the frequent blackouts. There is also a nice-looking golf course. The rooms are spacious and the beds are top quality. Their breakfast is pretty good and included in most room rates. But, the food for lunch and dinner is expensive and not among the best on the island. Plus, in a seemingly random manner, they close the restaurants for dinner. Sometimes you can get drinks and food on the Terrace in the main house. Other times the bar is open but no food. At those times, to eat on property requires trudging down the hill to the beach bar/restaurant, and fighting the bugs at Beauregard's. Other days, Beauregard's is closed and The Terrace is the only place to eat at night. I found this to be very inconvenient. For some reason, they absolutely insist on advance reservations for the "fine dining" tables in the Terrace--when it's open. However, the same menu is available at the bar on nights they are serving food. Whenever that might be. Your best best is to get a room here, hang around the beach during the day, and head into Christiansted for dinner. read more

WORST RESORT I HAVE EVER TRAVELED TO!!! There was a cockroach on my toothbrush this morning. 2. We ate at the mermaid last night. Didn't have water or drinks for thirty minutes. Received one drink in an hour and a half. Received appetizers after an hour and forty-five minutes. Horrendous service and the worst servers I've ever had. 3. This morning, went to the breakfast buffet in our robes. Rather than privately coming to our table and asking respectfully, the manager on the floor chased us out of the restaurant to let us know we made a guest uncomfortable and not to wear the robes to breakfast again. Worst service. Disrespectful. Cockroaches. Do not stay here. Go to a different island altogether. read more

My wife and I purchased the elopement package. I will recount our experience then add some tips to help maximize your stay if you're not planning on getting married and want to scroll to the end. I am giving our experience 4.5 stars with 1.5 stars being attributed solely to our wonderful wedding planners Erin Proctor and Olivia Leiti who really did their best to make sure we had a wonderful and memorable experience. The resort is beautiful, has great facilities, and is conveniently located near Christianstead, the home to many restaurants and embarkation point for tour boat trips to Buck Island and elsewhere. With that being said, there appeared to be some communication issues between the different "departments" of the hotel. Ill chalk this up to COVID as we were told there were large layoffs at the beginning of the pandemic and the resort was beginning to make more hires but was still short staffed during our stay. Nonetheless, as part of the elopement package you are supposed to be greeted in your room with Prosecco, flowers, a cheese, chocolate, and fruit plate, and other goodies. This didn't happen. We inquired about the goodies and found a basket in our room upon our return later in the afternoon, however it was a basket our friends had sent us. The concierge came the next day to apologize and explain there was some mix up. We never really got the full greeted in your room with Prosecco experience, but the resort made it up to us by giving us a free dinner at the Mermaid. As part of the Elopement package you get a free room upgrade. We booked the deluxe seaside rooms and were expecting to get upgraded to the luxury beachside dubloons. Instead, we were double upgraded to the Frigate Suite. While we were grateful for the double upgrade, the Frigate Suite didn't vibe for our occasion. With two bathrooms and a living room area overlooking a pool, we felt the Frigate Suite was best suited for a larger party with children, and we opted to move to the dubloons which proved to be more secluded, private, and romantic. The Mermaid was open for dinner, and has a beautiful view of the beach at sunset. But make sure you have a reservation, as plenty of people are turned away without one. If you're ordering to go, be prepared for a wait, as it can take more than an hour to get your food. The food was good, we never had anything we didn't like. The buffet on Saturday night was not worth $45 however, and I would recommend only eating there when they are offering an a la carte menu. Breakfast was also buffet but is included in your room rate and is served at the main building located up a substantial hill from the beachside rooms. The view is beautiful. We didn't care for the eggs, but they had different specials every day which proved to be interesting and somewhat tasty. We enjoyed the walk up the hill every morning, but can understand it can be daunting for the less mobile. They do have shuttles you can request to get up the hill. One of my wife's favorite aspects of the resort was the "cat cafe" and the various feline friends she made during our stay. Our wedding planner Erin has adopted these formerly feral cats and has gotten them fixed and vaccinated. They lounge around various areas of the resort, up at the main building and down by the beach. It's a nice sight for cat lovers. My wife thought it was really nice to be able to drop by and say hello to the island cats while our kittys were back at home. The resort has three different beaches. They were never busy during our stay. One is best for swimming, one for snorkeling, and the other just for a secluded walk. You can also check out snorkeling gear and kayaks and get beach towels. Tips For Your Stay: 1. There is a grocery store with an ATM called the Seaside Market which is nearby. I suggest stopping by and getting snacks/lunches/alcohol and cash (max $200) for tips taxi rides, etc. This will save you from spending a lot on expensive resort alcohol and food. 2. If you're getting sandwiches at the grocery let the taxi know. The sandwiches take a long time and the driver may not want to wait around for you. 3. Plan your taxis a couple hours in advance, and have them pick you up at the main building. The driver may get confused where they are picking you up, but if you're at the main building you cannot get blamed for not being ready for the taxi. 4. You can rent cabanas but its really unnecessary as the chairs are just as comfortable and relaxing. On a final note, we are very glad we picked the Buccaneer for our wedding and are grateful for our wedding planners who went above and beyond what was expected of them and really made the difference for our stay. read more

My friend decided to treat my bf and I to the breakfast buffet at this hotel. It's a bit pricey but you can eat til your pants expand. The food displayed included: eggs, eggs w/cheese, chocolate chip waffles, pork bacon, sausage links, sausage patty, corned beef hash topped with poached eggs, French toast, breakfast potatoes, hash browns, grits, cereal, baked goods, & fresh fruit. I guess it's your typical continental breakfast. The view is beautiful from the dining area. It looks over the beach and you can see St. Thomas from a distance. I would have loved to stay at this hotel if it wasn't full so that I could have experience all that it had to offer. Next time though for sure! There was a table of fresh juices: guava, tomato, orange, apple, and I believe pineapple. read more

The Buccaneer Hotel - Hotels Near Me - Christiansted, Virgin Islands

The Buccaneer is a great resort located on the northern coast of the island with quick access to downtown Christiansted. The property boast three private beaches a pool, and a shallow wading pool for beach chairs. Mermaid beach is the biggest and most popular beach on the property which offers food/drink service and plenty of free water sports if you're a guest. Rooms were nice, slightly outdated. Which is fine because our room was situated right on the water and spent most of the time on the deck looking at the views. The main restaurant on the property, the Terrace, where breakfast and dinner is served has amazing views of the water and the food is actually pretty good despite the high price tag. We ate dinner at the Terrace one night and everything was fine from the service to the food, but went into town for a majority of of meals with the exception of breakfast as the Terrace offers a great breakfast buffet complimentary to guests. Service from the time we got picked up from the airport to the time we left was impeccable. This resort most definitely cares about the guest experience and will bend over backwards to accommodate the guests needs. We were going to rent a car but there was no need as the Buccaneer has their own shuttle drivers and private Taxi's on call. Overall, we certainly enjoyed our time at the Buccaneer. The only thing this resort doesn't have on the premises is a little store to buy things like juice, water, and snacks. Also, be aware that most stores in Christiansted close at 3-5 PM and a lot of the restaurants close around 9. read more

So at the Buccaneer grotto for the first time to get food since the mermaid grill is closed. The children were happy to see the pool and go for a swim while we waited fo the food. The new manager Graham promptly told them the pool is for guests only and they could only swim at the beach but he could happily get us chairs for $10. Each! $74. For my children's lunch but let me rent you some chairs! We come to mermaid beach several times a month with a typical bill of $150-$200 while eating at mermaid beach during off season. Adding a chair charger is petty and will cost you customers when you need it most. We will be happy to eat beforehand and enjoy the public beach. Thanks read more

We came to visit the hotel, potentially eat at the restaurant and spend a day at the beach. The view from up on the hill (where the restaurant, and main area is) is amazing. Almost 360 degrees of great views. I found that when hotel staff assumed we were guests, they were very kind but were rude when we approached them as visitors. They charge $10/chair at the beach for non-guests and have specific areas where you are allowed to sit (and you definitely can't use the pool). There are nicer beaches on the island, with cheaper, less stuck-up approaches to chair rentals/sharing the beach/enjoying the island. I realize they are trying to allow their paying guests to have a perfect time, they simply didn't leave me wanting to come back, as a guest or paying customer. read more

First time visit here and found check in to be quick, but getting baggage to our room was a long delay. We had a room on the second floor of the main building which had a stunning view of the resort and beach and water. We had a king size bed which was comfortable and a balcony which was super. They provide you with a full bottle of shampoo, conditioner and hand cream, which are nice products. Loved the room, but housekeeping every day was always later, which was often problematic. The dining areas are nice, with beautiful views. Food is pricey, but expected at a resort like this. Our only wish was that they had a restaurant with casual food for dinner. The Grotto was closed, so maybe that has it when open. They had a nice owners reception where they served wine and some snacks. Great steel drum music and men dancing on stilts. Very nice event. The Mermaid has a fire dancer one evening which was ok. Loved the grilled food at that restaurant. It is Island service, so expect to wait at all the restaurants. The beach area is nice, with plenty of seating areas. Wish they had more shaded area as the sun is intense. They provide paddle boards, kayaks, floating and snorkel equipment. There are many tennis courts, but the walk up and down the hill in the intense heat got old. read more

This is my home away from home. I fell in love with this place the moment I stepped foot on the resort grounds. So beautiful, quiet and welcoming. I spent five days here. The best five days of my life and this was the first time I've stayed at this hotel. The staff was tremendously wonderful. All were friendly and helpful. When I saw my room I was blown away by how gorgeous it was and the view of the deep blue ocean was just spectacular. I stayed here in September of 2016. It was my first vacation in years. After this lovely stay I began thinking about where else I wanted to vacation but after months of researching other hotels and resorts I came back to thinking about The Buccaneer. I thought how happy it made me to be there and how much I want to feel like that again. So, I got in touch with my travel agent in the last few weeks and already booked my next stay at The Buccaneer. I can't wait to go. Is it September yet? It is a pricey hotel but worth every penny. read more

See all

Don't stay here if you wanna have any type of fun. Some of the workers are nice some are not. Food is good tho. It's just so boring bars close at 5 and there's nothing to do besides sit and stare read more
