Good for an overnight stay
Lovely renovated hotel, very clean and comfortable. The only issues were with key cards that did not work for a number of guests, including myself. There were people also hanging out in the hallway having a conversation, and the sound really carried loudly.

Clean room but terrible customer service
The room was clean and quiet in the evening but the customer service is terrible!! Before being asked to move rooms due to renovations starting the second day of my stay, one of the cleaners walked right in my room without knocking. Then there was a charge of $44.15 places on my credit card that the manager could not locate and I have yet to hear back from them regarding if they will make it right. This was even after a follow up email. Looks like I’ll need to call their corporate office.

Not the best hotel
There is not enough help. The front desk has to do too much to stay at desk. Also the man was on cell phone talking to someone about car repairs. It seemed we were bothering him to have questions. Hotel was being remodeled but the room i had was remodeled. it was not impressive.

Overall hotel was nice and clean. I was placed in a handicap style room with shower built for disabilities. Water was all over floor when taking shower. Staff was very loud in hallway at 6am making noise and holding conversation.

Under Renovations
Upon checking in the person at the front desk was very friendly and welcoming. He informed me that the Hotel was currently under renovations and that I would hear some noise throughout the day. Of course I wasn’t too thrilled to hear that and probably wouldn’t have booked if I knew this was the case prior. Fortunately the noise wasn’t too bad. The room I got was very clean, spacious, and appeared to be one of the newly renovated rooms which was a plus. On the other hand the water pressure from the shower in the room was very low. I didn’t bother to complain about it because I figured it was due to the renovations so I dealt with it. The breakfast they offer is very basic. Eggs, Bacon, sausage, toast or a Bagel. That’s about it. Most hotels I stay at that offer breakfast offer the same things with the addition of either Pancakes or Waffles which would of been nice to have as an option. My room key was giving me issues which I’m pretty sure it wasn’t so much the key but the lock on the door. Everything was new including the doors. I had to exchange my key twice and even then I had to play around with the lock on the door to get it open anytime I left my room which became annoying after a couple times. Once again I chalked it all up to renovations. Other than that I would stay here again but after renovations are complete. With the couple of inconveniences at this Hotel due to the renovations, It would of been fair to take off 20% or even 15% on the room costs to customers….

Not as advertised….
The guy at the front desk was very nice but this hotel isn’t anything at all like the photos. It’s very rundown, very dirty, and very loud. I feel bad writing this because all the staff went above and beyond for us, but the condition of the hotel is terrible. The door to the bathroom was rotting and moldy. The carpet smelled and was worryingly damp. The beds were alright in all fairness. Lots of nicer places in the area for similar money. I’d go to one of those next time.

Great price, hotels needs some refurburshing
Good for a one night stay. It is in need of some refurburshing. When I went to the washroom first thing I seem was a cockroach in the tub! Its a good price, and free breakfast was decent. But I wouldnt stay more than one night. Friendly staff

Two rooms
I booked two rooms. I did not have any problems in mine, but my friends changed rooms twice. The first room given to them had a toilet with mold and it looked that it hasn't been cleaned in years. The second room, had nail clippings under the covers...really disgusting. Thankfully the third room was better.

Go somewhere else unless you have no choice
The hotel is in dyer need of facelift. The removed shuttle service to and from airport and failed to advise prior to booking. The room was not thoroughly clean. The front desk was not pleasant by no means. Will not be staying at this place for future cruise or no cruise.
