Reading other negative reviews is quite puzzling to me. I recently spent a night after a cruise and it was quite pleasant. The two employees at the front desk were more than hospitable as was the FREE shuttle driver. The room was clean and quiet. The complimentary breakfast was very good with lots of great options. The room was starting to show signs of some minor wear but this hotel is a great choice for a short stay before or after a cruise.

Room floor cracked & split in many spots , not a single cup /glass in room .shower base leaked into bathroom floor .was not expecting this having paid $275 for room ! The staff is very nice , particularly Kim . Breakfast buffet is pretty good . One place to dine that’s a bit of a walk on a busy highway with no sidewalks. Not easy to navigate . Waited 40 mins for van from airport , then he passed us by ! Ended up taking an Uber

The room we had was on the 3rd floor. The toilet did not flush when we checked in. We notified maintenance and they came up and plunged it clear. That lasted 2 flushes and then stopoed draining again. No aNow it was 8 pm. No answer at maintenance/housekeeping. No answer at the front desk. No one. At the front desk when we went down. My family had to go down 2 floors all night to use the bathllpublic bathroom. The next morning i asked to speak to the manager and was told she was off that day and there was no one available that day to complain to. I was told the manager would call me the nexxlt day. She didn't. I called the hotel the next day and was told she doesn’t come in until afternoon.

Bad advertising (shuttle to the cruiseport was a pay service that wasn't communicated), dated hotel (floors buckling, old fixtures, weird nook area), room dirty (q-tips on the bathroom floor, trash can not empty) No offer to correct the problem, just a "sorry about that". Would not recommend. We paid $200 for a Thursday night in January. It wasn't worth $100.....

We waited for 4 hours to be able to check into the hotel, because they were sold out the night before and wasn't taking anybody's name when they came in and just made us wait. Then they actually gave people rooms that just walked in before all of us waiting! Then we finally got our room. The room seemed clean enough. Bed was Ok. It was nice and quiet. The shower handle did fell off. LOL. Overall it was fine for 1 night before a cruise.

I guess that due to the snowstorm they were overwhelmed with a lot of people trying to check in. I am going to give them the benefit of the doubt because of the huge influx of people. The free pick up at the airport was a joke. We arrived at 11:30 but the shuttle only started to arrive at 2:30. We saw many shuttles come and go during that 3 hour period for other hotels and I wish we had known before we booked. I give very high praise to the shuttle driver for looking after my husband who I assume had heat stroke from waiting so long he was marvellous.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was clean and neat However, there are no glasses in the room and evidently they do not furnish them whether it’s paper plastic ceramic or whatever the furniture was beat up. There was only one chair and it would only stay up the very low position and was the fabric was torn. Need a little bit of explanation on the blind as at night you can’t really see what’s happening except that we couldn’t close it it says that there is transportationpossible call 24 hours in advance for the ride from the airport but evidently they do not do that we called we made a reservation however they told us that after we landed, it would be two hours before they would be making another airport run so what was the point in calling 24 hours in advance Very disappointing. It is not close to any restaurant. It is minimal breakfast. OK but nothing very special one cereal. They said that it was near the airport. It really is not.. we went to breakfast at 8 o’clock and by this time an hour after it opened, the breakfast bar itself was very dirty.

Shuttle from the airport never showed up and after 1 hour and 30 min we ended up ordering an Uber driver to get us to the hotel. They did refund the cost of the Uber but ruined our evening plans.
