Both rooms TV’s had to be reset by staff, so technically the rooms weren’t ready upon my arrival at 4:30 PM. Positive note: rooms were clean and organized with pleasant smell. Staff friendly and informative. Price reasonable compared to other hotels in the area.

We atay at this property before every cruise, 4 this year. The staff is always happy to see us and very courteous. The property is just 5-10 minutes from terminal, depending on traffic.

Great stay worth the money

The only problem we had was the temperature of the water. It was more like taking a shower and baby warm water. It did need some updates, but otherwise it was very comfortable and very very quiet. Will most likely stay there again. It was close to the port where we were cruising

Pre cruise stay

Did the job for a pre cruise night stay. No frills. Just a room and a parking space. Tv worked and the bathroom was adequate. The motel is dated but upgraded where it counts - the bed and flooring.
