The staffs are friendly and the hotel is a family friendly. But room is not as good. We stayed in room 502 and paid extra $60 a night. The bottom of the ac unit is very dusty, the floor is very dirty, the toilet flush is broken, and the front door has a big gap around the frame that its letting the cold air coming in.

The room was the worst I have ever received. They didn't accommodate that we had two rooms and did not put them next to each other and the hotel wasn't even half full that first night. They cancelled our cards on the second day and had to get all new cards programmed. The first day the ice machine didn't work on my floor and tried to other floors until I found one that worked, etc.

We were put in a room right next to first floor elevators the first night. It was terribly loud. Although they moved us the second night, it was a room with 2 queens instead of 1 king. E were also assure me that our $40 shuttle to our cruise ship would get there in plenty of time. Our boarding time is in one minute and the shuttle still has not arrived at our hotel. Very disappointed.

Our stay was pleasant but our reservation was initially for conjoined rooms but upon arrival we were told the rooms were not available. After further investigation, the rooms were available but after an additional $50 charge. We found this disappointing and unfortunate but paid since we had little kids that necessiated the rooms.
