Mark Williams, vice president of North American development for Best Western indicated that this will be the fifth Best Western in the Caribbean and its first in Haiti "The service will be five-star" explaining that there will be two lounges, a spa, 24-hour doormen and concierge service, as befits a hotel designed to facilitate business.
