Found this place last year after staying at other hotels in Port A and I can say the rooms are big with comfy beds, awesome AC and their continental breakfast is really good, lots to choose from. Parking can be short and tight if the hotel is fully booked but overall have not had any issues once staying at this hotel. Staff are cordial. Have not tried the bar but I hear its nice. Will stay here again.

Rooms were big. All opened to the common area. Bathroom could have been cleaner. No ice machines. You can buy bags at the office. Breakfast pretty good. Served from 6-9:30, not 6-8 like their website says. Also has a bar with a nice view. Happy hour is 5-7, not 4-6. Breakfast lady and bartenders very nice.

Construction going on around hotel. Hallway in front of room constantly had air blower on drying out carpet (probably due to leak), smelled of mold. Breakfast was a bust. What they don't tell you is breakfast is muffins, bagels, bananas, small, boxed cereal. Walls were paper thin and you could hear a toddler in one of the rooms throwing a fit around 4 a.m. Staff was very accommodating, allowed us on first floor due to my cancer.
