Very nice staff at the front desk and the room was clean and comfortable . They let me leave my bag and take a shower before leaving for my red eye flight
While this is a tiny bit more than I like to spend per night, the location is amazing, the staff is super friendly and helpful, and the rooms and internet were great!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Rooms were nice,..but could hear karaoke bar next door till after 1am
GREAT hotel for a pre/post-cruise stay. Location is walking distance from cruise/ferry terminal. Rooms are very clean and modern. Front desk staff is outstanding.
Everything was clean and organized. Being within walking distance to the cruise port was a plus. Taxi from airport was 2,800 in local currency (most cabs require cash).
