This hotel has a lot of history but it is very modern, luxurious and clean. It is located opposite the port (you can walk to the ferry in 9 minutes) but it is a bit further to reach center city and we took a taxi back from eating there.

The hotel itself was nice, clean and there looked to be lots of services if needed. The location was very conveniently located next to the port. The hotel room seemed to have thin walls, could hear a lot while in the room. Also under the flight path so you could hear planes all day/night. The parking lot was convenient as well.
