The location was excellent. It sat near the cruise terminal. The room was quite spacious, providing ample room to relax after a long day. The breakfast offered a good selection of options. I found many delicious choices.
My room felt a little dated, with some signs of wear and tear VISIBLE. The bathroom fixtures showed some age. I noticed some corrosion. The air conditioning unit was somewhat noisy. IT disrupted sleep slightly.

checking in was surprisingly swift. the staff seemed almost too eager to process my stay.
The 'standard king room' was not particularly kingly. More like a slightly overweight prince. the promised harbor view seemed to involve a lot of neck-craning and squinting past industrial equipment. It was disappointing
