Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is in a convenient location close to everything, with clean and comfortable rooms. The service is top-notch but lacks certain facilities. Dining options are satisfactory, and the value for money is fair.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were in really good condition, equipped with a sleeper sofa and a variety of amenities, including a comfortable King bed. The service was top-notch with excellent customer service and convenient dry cleaning services. The location was ideal, situated near restaurants and shopping areas, close to the cruise ship terminal, in a nice downtown neighborhood surrounded by stores and restaurants. The dining experience was fabulous, especially the smoked meat offerings. The facilities were superb, offering everything I needed for a comfortable stay.
This hotel was an absolute gem! The rooms were clean, comfy, and equipped with a sleeper sofa in really good condition, making the stay extra cozy. The service was top-notch, with excellent customer service and convenient dry cleaning options. The location was perfect, near restaurants and shopping in a nice neighborhood, and close to the cruise ship terminal. Although the dining options were limited to grilled meats, everything else made up for it. A truly value-for-money experience!
