Room was clean. My only complaint was its way out of the way from the cruise port, as well as anything else. We stayed a couple days before boarding a ship and its out in the middle of an industrial area. Not much around it. Only restaurant anywhere near it was closed when we were there. We had to Uber pretty much anywhere.

No one ever answered the phone when I called to inquire for assistance prior to my stay.. The room was smoky smelling. No cups or options for getting ice for the room. We were able to check in early, which was great and the stay was ok. There is really nothing in the close vicinity for eating options.

The property was great. The breakfast was so-so. Accommodating staff. Thank you!
Airport pick up was very good. Rooms small but clean. It was quiet. First day breakfast was good. Second day there was nothing left. Not even yogurt. Could also use some benches outside for those waiting for transfers. Not close to any shopping or restaurants.
Amenities more options on breakfast especially cereal and meat. Not everyone eats pork

Staff is great and accommodating. Breakfast is limited variety is minimal compared to other hotels. Absolutely nowhere to walk to eat around there. Either take a ride share or order out for delivery.
Rooms are small but space is well used.
Lobby didn’t have air conditioning, room was extremely tiny, barely any amenities. My room was booked under my husband names and they wouldn’t let me check in. Would not recommend.
