Pros:

Inițial am ales acest hotel datorită poziționării față de portul de îmbarcare pentru croaziere si vreau sa spun ca nu am dat greș.Este in fata porților de acces in interiorul portului.Putin mai sus este si gara in cazul in care se alege ca mijloc de transport trenul.In apropiere sunt si supermarketuri,iar la o scurtă plimbare găsești un Mall mare sau muzeul Titanic si alte obiectiveturistice.Hotelul are piscină interioară,saună,o sală de fitness
