It was a quiet out-of-the-way area but still had great access to shopping and eating as well as the cruise port.

Not sure why our experience was so different from other travelers. Our room smelled like pot the whole time and the floor needed vacuuming.

I selected this hotel purely based on the location (close to the event venue I attended). I didn't expect much, but to my surprise, the room had a jacuzzi! The room was updated not too long ago and fairly clean. It was missing a few typical motel items (coffee machine, tissue box, trash bin in the bathroom), and the bed was small for 2 and not very comfortable, but the jacuzzi made up for all those flaws. Parking is limited. Staff was helpful.

Staff was very courteous, the room was comfortable. Being right on the street it was a little noisy. My only real complaint was there was an odor of cat urine, was what it smelled like to me. Thankfully underlying and not overwhelming.I was gone alot and really only there to sleep so I was not extremely bothered by it. Everything else was good clean sheets ok bed and Hot water/ shower. Overall a pleasant stay. I would stay there again however they do need to address the issueof a smell of cat urine/ spray.
