Instructions say to call front desk for airport pick up. Front desk didn’t answer the phone from 4pm till 9pm so had to use Lyft. When questioned, front desk manager said she turns off the ringer and doesn’t answer because of too many calls
The staff was absolutely amazing this is definitely a welcoming environment ! Any questions the were quick to answer overall definitely recommend to stay here whenever in the area !

Clean, nice staff. Transportation to and from airport was a nice bouns. However shuttle times were spaced out really far. It would be great if they considered adding additional shuttle. Ex my flight departed at 11 am the 1st shuttle time was 730am the next was 1130 am. Plan and simple i was 3 hour earlt to airport or miss my flight. I just took an lyft and arrived at airport in appropriate time. Overall enjoyed my stay.
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 was clean,hot shower!When asked,Staff suggested a shuttle company(La Roche Transportation)to cruise port-reasonable rates and they were on time to pick us up next morning!
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.
