The location was near shops and restaurants, and near the Cruise PORT. The breakfast area was great. I did not like the work going on in the parking lot. It was very small and our Uber had little room to maneuver. Also, didn't like that we could smell the water treatment at the pool. Yuck!

The staff at this location are fantastic! Very caring, sweet, nice, accommodating, and friendly! Room was good. Breakfast was great, good options! Again I want to say how much I loved the staff, and not just one person, multiple staff from front desk to housekeeping, to the shuttle driver!

The manager gave me a hard time to checking in after everything was already confirmed and then he gave me a room with somebody in there already and they were having sex so they freaked out so I came back downstairs and he didn’t apologize for it.

Walkable to restaurants and other shopping. Very close to the cruise port, only a $5 LYFT to the princess cruise terminal. Breakfast was good, room was clean. We walked to Duffies restaurant which had great food and drink specials. Will stay again.

I always enjoy staying at the Holiday Inn on 17th Street, it is conveniently located on the main bus route, as I do not drive overseas. The spa, shopping and dining are all within walking distance and I have considered it one of my homes away from home when I cannot get my timeshare closer to the beach. I will be back as long as there is availability and the rates remain reasonable.
