6.6/10
The hotel is conveniently located near the airport and the port, making it a great choice for pre and post-cruise stays. While the rooms were quiet and had comfortable twin beds, I found them not quite as clean as I hoped. The service from the staff was somewhat lacking in friendliness, and the dining options were just standard buffet fare. However, the location's proximity to restaurants and the port is a definite plus.

The hotel had a great location, perfect for my conference at the Convention Center, and the staff was attentive and friendly.

Overall, it offered good value for a brief stay.

I had a pretty decent stay at this hotel. The rooms, while a good size and clean, could really use some updating.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, where the rooms were super comfortable and clean, making it a nice spot before my cruise. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially during the ongoing renovations. However, the location can get crowded at busy times, and the breakfast quality was hit or miss. Overall, it's a good value for money considering the comfort and service I received.

I had a pretty mixed experience at this hotel. The location was great, being close to both the airport and the pier, which made my travels much easier. However, the room itself left a lot to be desired due to cleanliness issues, including unwanted pests and stained sheets. On the plus side, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my stay a bit more pleasant despite the room issues.
