Was close to the beach. Only thing I didn’t like was that there was a door inside my room that I guess was connected to the other room. Since it was a girl trip made me a feel a bit unsafe. Never stayed in a room where there was a door inside.

It was very old and dinghy inside. Blanket, sheets, and cover were old looking. The cleaning product they used had a very strong smell that it gave me a headache. Their continental breakfast was terrible. The room was too expensive for what we got.

We like to stay at this hotel the night before embarkation for a cruise. It is very well located close to the cruise terminal and the staff is always kind and courteous and the property is well priced for a nice room to stay in the night before a cruise.

Price was very reasonable. Going on a cruise and I picked this place base on distant to ship. The room was very clean, appears to be freshly painted. The breakfast leaves a lot to be desired. Coffee pastries, and apples.

Well... it was a roof and a bed.
I'm used to choosing to stay at less than stellar places for a night, mainly for economics. This time though, I honestly considered just booking somewhere else after walkinh into the room. The floor was sticky. There were odd red splotchy stains on some walls. The sheets and blankets had holes in them. The free cruise parking advertised had been painted over on the sign and we were quoted a pretty non-competitive price minus transportation (which would result in paying more than at the port). The breakfast amounted to a few apples, a bottle of orange juice, a gallon of milk, a couple coffee urns, and a handful of questionable pastry-like things. I just drove to IHoP. I almost never, ever, bother with reviews, and I typically take negative ones with a grain of salt, but this time... well, it's not quite abandon all hope ye who enter here but... buyer beware.
