We arrived a little early, so we were unsure if we could check in. The front desk attendant was super friendly and able to accommodate us. We got to our room which was super clean! Hot water works very well! Super close to restaurants and local grocery stores.

Precruise stay

We came down for a cruise on the following day and stayed here. Its not in a tourist district but it was close to the cruise terminal. It was an older proprerty and looked like it had been recently renovated. We found it clean, and well appointed with thick and plush towels. Our overnight stay was pleasant. My only concern was the elevator was out or order and having to carry our suitcase up the stairs was not easy.

Room Key & Elevator Problems

Room key did not work after check-in and elevator out of order. Had to return luggage to car in order to walk to and notify front desk. Maintenance required to fix door handle so key would work causing a delay. Upon return to room after dinner, room key did not work again. Had to return to front desk and obtain new room key.

A nice place to stay for cheap.

Older hotel but well kept. Breakfast staff seemed mad they had to work. Lower numbered tv channels didn't work so couldn't watch the game. Soft beds and clean room. Only complaint was the amount of weed that was being smoked. Filled the air anytime you walked outside.
