Published rating was inaccurate we were dissapoint

We reserved a deluxe king & because of Internet issues in that unit they offered us another room in another bldg. The room was alot smaller, had no microwave. It was a motel type room & the outside door had a significant gap so you could see light and feel air. The bathroom was very dated. The breakfast was minimal . It was not anything close to a 9-10 rating that was published.

It was disappointing to learn upon check-in that the pool was closed and internet was unavailable. Both were advertised in the hotel’s information. Advanced notice would have been respectful and allowed us to assess our options. A discount should have been offered. Breakfast was very basic. Rooms were clean, the bed comfortable and the location was good.

I was a little leery about staying in what's essentially a motel. I worried about the noise and the safety aspects being right off a busy road. It was not noisy at all, and I felt pretty safe, even at night when we walked to get dinner. (Of course, I still had my guard up, but It was a quiet, chill area.) Overall, it was a lovely stay. Our room was enormous, spotless, and convenient. It was an easy walk to Old Town and an easy (and cheap!) Uber from the airport and then to the cruise ship terminal. Breakfast was pretty standard as far as hotel food goes, but it was still nice it was offered and saved us from having to hunt down grub first thing in the morning. Also, they did have a pretty good variety of stuff to choose from. And a shout out to Mike and Gabby at the front desk, both of whom were very lovely and informative about getting around via the Trolley and with good recs on where to eat in Old Town. Oh and they saved us money on the hop on, hop off tour too buying our tickets through the hotel so that was also a plus! Also, I appreciated the communication/head's up ahead of time that the pool would be under renovation. I like when properties take the time to let people know things like that.

Good place to stay near Old Town

Friendly staff and good breakfast, comfortable bed for us side sleepers (my husband prefers a firmer bed for his back though). Only dings were lumpy pillows and no wi fi in our building due to some part they can’t get.
