We were there for 2 weeks and were wery happy with our choice of hotel. It was a short distance to downtown and the beach. Also, a good grocery store right next door. It felt like we were VIP guests and many thanks to Ingrid and Stanley.

Worst place for the money! Road is tore up in front of it and there already was no parking. Hacking dog. Comforter had holes. Appliances disgusting. No hot water. If you leave your room, owner will enter and turn off air conditioner. No privacy.

He was a wonderful host during our stay. And we can not thank him and his family enough. We are planning to return again. Our Apartment... More

We stayed just 1 night, during a layover between our evening arrival from the US & an early morning flight to Curacao. However, Stanley was a very gracious, accommodating & friendly host. He picked us up from the airport (as arranged via email), carried our luggage up to the 2nd floor room, and gave us drinks that evening, and again... More

Good location, 5 min walk to main center, 15 min walk from the beach and 3 large grossery stores. Ingrid and Stanley are very kind and serviceminded owners providing you with all information needed. The room is big and clean and the kitchen is nice, Aircondition is silent. The wifi is great and fast. Safaa & Anna Sweden

I just got back from my week in Aruba. I stayed at A1 apartment for 3 nights. Yes, it is budget stay according to American standards. But it provides everything necessary. More importantly, Stanley and Ingrid made it home for me. I was going through some difficulties in my personal life and was traveling by myself. It was such a... More

I stayed at the A1 Apartments for 3 weeks while doing research at the University of Aruba. It was a great experience. Incredibly clean, safe and comfortable. Downtown Oranjestad is 6 minutes away walking. The beach is a 25 minute walk. You couldn't ask for a better place. It is cool, affordable, comfortable and has great wi-fi.

I felt very safe and Stan and Ingrid went above and beyond in making our stay wonderful. I strongly recommend A1 to any one looking for a reasonable and friendly place to stay in Aruba. kerwin(Trinidad)
