The Bay Plaza is a very affordable hotel in an excellent locality. We stayed in a king room on the 6th floor. It was a spacious room with a great view of the city and inner harbour snd had everything we needed. It’s an older hotel but scrupulously clean and the service was excellent with pjs Tigua car parking. We’ll definitely stay there again.
