Property is in a great location. Very good breakfast buffet. Rooms needs updating. Half the staff could have been friendlier. Crazy that the restaurant was closed on Sunday evening in the busiest week of the year.

So glad we chose this hotel. Great accommodations!!Everything was neat and clean. Incredible breakfast that came with the stay. The food accommodated so many people from so many countries. I have never seen a free breakfast spread like this before. Our tours met at the hotel or close by the hotel. Close to shops and dining. Easy to walk to and get to everything. I would highly recommend and I would stay there again!!

We loved this place! The family room with the bunk beds was a nice size, the heated floor in the bathroom is great and the property itself is just lovely. All staff were friendly and efficient. The location was fantastic. And the breakfast was a marvel - the barrista was my favorite part but ive not seen one as well done as that. I considered moving to an airbnb and so glad we didnt, this was just perfect.

We had a good view of the marina. The hardwood floors were nice and the heated bathroom floor was really great. Good proximity to shopping and was a stop for airport shuttle and many tours. Overall nice place to stay. Staff was okay, not bad at all but nothing I would say is above and beyond.
