Great location, food excellent. Did not like the destination charge. If you are staying pre cruise and check in late and out next morning this is a total rip off. For this reason will look for a different hotel next year as this one is now very expensive

The room was clean. Very cramped room also the room was cold and I couldn't get the furnace to shut down and just heat up the room. We both froze all night. I tried several times to adjust the furnace and it would not heat.

Room was in horrible condition. I “thought” if I paid over 500.00 for 1 night it would be a very nice room. My BFF was in town and we took the train to Ft. Lauderdale from Orlando just for fun and relaxation! After I complained about our room; I was told the other tower was renovated and much better, but, they were full. The walls were dirty, paint chipping off, bath tub chipping, corners dirty and so on……coffee pot broken!!! Water seeped out underneath it snd went all over the table. So disappointed. I’m not sure what I paid 500.00 + for. To add insult to injury; no one cared that would speak with at the hotel, no one! Never again.

Air conditioning was good, room was fine, we asked at the front desk for 2 bottles of water and never received them. The elevator was out of order for a few hours and we had fire alarms go off at 5:30 am and again at 6 am our first night Thursday technically Friday morning. Which really disrupted our sleep- we never heard why it happened.
