The grounds are kept, what you would expect from a resort in it’s price range. Most of the staff we interacted with were very friendly despite us being locals, this was a surprise and I commend Royal Palm staff for treating us as actual paid guests. We stayed in a basic room with a bed size upgrade, but furniture is clearly worn. The room itself was very clean which mattered most. The bathroom fixtures had clear signs of rust. There was what appears to be a drain from the previous shower concealed by the bathroom rug-after a remodel. I’m not sure if this was a sole contributor to a sewerage scent- it was faint at the time of year we visited and could be remedied by keeping the bathroom door closed. Wasn’t a pleasant surprise stepping out of the actual shower onto a rug and feeling a hole beneath. Hard to miss it because the bathroom has vinyl flooring with air pockets forming beneath. Location is central on the island and a convenience store, the single ATM machine and a liquor store are all under five minutes walking distance from Royal Palm’s Lobby. General manager very down to earth and accommodating, he assured us we could reach out to him for any issues. Royal Palm is fine on a budget if you’re only going to be sleeping in the room. No microwave in the lower tier rooms, very spacious closet, room did have a mini-refrigerator and a 32 “wall-mounted TV with a functioning amazon firestick. Budget friendly and kind staff are it’s strengths, weaknesses are outdated furniture, fixtures and plumbing,
