Best Western Plus Port O'Call Hotel
Staff and facility were great. Room was nice and spacious. Clean facility. My only complaint was that we booked this hotel to spend time at the waterpark with our children but you’re only allowed to access it for 1 hour after check in due to the volume of people that show up. This was not communicated ...
