Reasonable for short stay near cruise ship departures
Pros:

Convenient to the cruise port

Cons:

Older hotel, a little worn, and in need of some repairs, updates would help, would not advertise having a continental breakfast, fast food restaurant nearby was good option for quick meal

Pros:

Continental breakfast was good.

Cons:

I didn’t like how old the shower was and the bathtub was chipping. I asked for extra towel at 6:30am and the front desk person said he’ll have it brought up to me and at 10pm when I got back from hotel room it wasn’t there. Had to go back down to front office and waited 20minutes for somebody to show up.

Thanks for the hospitality but we won’t be staying here in the future
Pros:

Honestly the only decent things I can think of was the kindness from the staff, the clean linens, the attempt at breakfast & the nice view. The best part was the hotel kitty.

Cons:

The hallways & staircase were terribly disgusting as if they hadn’t been cleaned in years. Furniture was either broken or in bad condition. The pool was very dirty, full of bugs & other debris. We spent about 20 minutes cleaning it and it still wasn’t very good. This place really didn’t meet my expectations at all, for $150/night I expected a cleaner environment for my family.
