Nice hotel, friendly staff, clean rooms with easy access to the Strand and restaurants. The outside deck was closed with no furniture which is shown in the advertisements. Had booked in hopes we would be able to kick back and relax while observing the activities in the ship channel.

Great location however it was not the cleanest. The fan did not work in our room and there was not many outlets. Very overpriced for the room conditions but very convenient being so close to the cruise port. I probably won’t stay here again because for this price I could stay at the Tremont.

The air conditioner quit working, the coffee maker in the room didn’t work and the elevator quit working. Electrical issues. I called the front desk twice and no one answered. I reported to front desk, Beatrice, and she refunded the parking but couldn’t refund to hotels.com nor Expedia. I’d like a refund. Your customer service number nor email customer.service email is working.
