Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was clean, the beds were fine, breakfast was ok. The bathroom had wear and tear and needed some touchup paint in several places. The location was great - several places to eat and pick up anything you may have forgotten m nearby. It served our purpose of a place to sleep between our flight arrival and cruise boarding! I’d probably stay again.

Room was clean but the bathroom fan was noisy and runs all the time. Location is great with shopping and eating all nearby. Try to stay in the south end, which is newer. Pool is nice area and warm enough to use. We always stay here prior to cruising.
