Hidden fees
I’m rating three stars because: 1. The hotel charges a “resort fee” at checkin. I wish these were illegal. Just bundle with the cost of the room. 2. There was no soap in the shower. This is a basic thing that should always be checked before each guest arrives. 3. The noise isolation of the room was pretty poor, but I guess that’s to be expected with a building of this age. Other than that the surrounding area was nice and the hotel had a comforting ambience.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Was a nice convenient location for walking to the waterfront. Very unique property, with an amazing apartment style room, though we were not very happy that there was an additional "fee" when we arrived at the property. We had prepaid via Expedia and were told this is always not missed and so had to pay the additional fee that we were unaware of. Good breakfast, but the waffle maker kept breaking and the person kept saying it was the way people were doing it - though it worked for NO ONE. Overall enjoyable place and very unique, would recommend, but be aware you may owe additional money when you show up!

Christina at the Front Desk is wonderful. Her customer service skills are excellent. We return to Villa Rosa because of her customer service, connection with guests, and very approachable to ask questions and talk to.

Disliked: Staff & service
There was a flood advisory the weekend i was supposed to stay and a small tsunami in a neighboring city so i called to reschedule for the following week and was told it was not a problem. I was then called at almost 4pm to be told by the same employee that their manager said they won't honor the reschedule and i will be charged for no show when at that point was now too late to drive there. So i was charged for a room i never stood in and they refused to discount the following weekend
