Did not like the housekeeping staff making excessive noise in the hallway when cleaning rooms. Sign posted on door that I wanted to not be disturbed & rest and they yelled down hall and slammed doors for extended period of time each day. Coffee machine in lobby nice.

Did not enjoy our stay. We picked this spot because it was close to the cruise ship port. Area is very scary. Our one guide gave us an alternate route to get back to our hotel because we’d likely get mugged going back. Would not recommend. We arrived at the hotel and half the lights in our room didn’t work. We called the front desk and a technician came quickly. For 30 minutes he worked at trying to fix it. Front desk came up when we asked for a new room. Guest reception told us they could give us a new room, but they wouldn’t know when. We’d have to wait in the lobby until something became available - not cool. The technician ended up fixing them and we had no further issues. Otherwise the room was ok, but the bathroom was so so dated and the shower felt like it was falling apart. If you’re a light sleeper don’t stay here it’s incredibly noisy. After a red eye flight you don’t want to deal with the issues this hotel had.
