Lobby shop has limited stock and hours. Gym sanitizers empty. Tv offers no premium stations. Bar manager was settling cash draw issue with bartender in front of customers. Every one felt uncomfortable, not to mention there was no service. Rooms are old and tired.

Although it’s an older hotel it is in beautiful condition. Upgraded rooms without changing the ambiance of the hotel. Central, close to shopping and excursions. Great options for good. Close to the Ship Terminal.
