Pros:

I liked the Latina Representative at Check-out. She was very polite and pleasant.

Cons:

I didn't like Genesis, she was the young lady at Check-in. She came across as annoyed and like we were bothering her. The toilet in the room was leaking on the floor and the shower water was backed up.

Meh
Pros:

It was available for when we needed to be there. Uber Eats and DoorDash was easy to receive. Close to a mini mall, it was literally across the street. Close to cruise port, uber ride was about 12 minutes from hotel. Laundry was free and we didn’t have issues getting a washer or dryer to use

Cons:

no daily housekeeping, no bottle water in room upon arrival, dingy old. Found hairs in the bathroom. Can use with lots of upkeep.

Convenient airport location, great amenities and nearby parks, but the experience was diminished by uncomfortable intera
Pros:

I enjoyed the property's convenient location near the airport, which made travel much easier. The hotel also had a gym and laundry facilities, both of which were important amenities for me during my stay.

Another major advantage was the shopping plaza directly across the street. It was very convenient for picking up food, groceries, and other everyday necessities without needing transportation.

My favorite part of the stay, however, was the access to outdoor recreation. There were two parks within about a 10–15 minute walk from the hotel, and I visited them almost every morning to exercise. Having those parks nearby greatly enhanced my experience and helped me maintain my daily fitness routine.

Cons:

One downside was my interaction with some members of the staff during my extended stay. This was during a period when airport disruptions and shutdowns were affecting travel plans, so I had to extend my reservation multiple times.

Unfortunately, I occasionally felt that certain staff members made unnecessary comments about the length of my stay. While they may not have intended any harm, the remarks made me feel uncomfortable and self-conscious, especially considering I was paying for my accommodations and extending due to circumstances beyond my control. Ultimately, this discomfort contributed to my decision to leave sooner than I had originally planned.
