I gave all excellent ratings. My only advice is that the hotel misses the mark on being environmentally active - there is no in-room card to through on the bed to indicate that you do NOT want the linens changed. Secondly, after cleaning the room no matter what time of day they turn on the lights - which means if you come back to the room late in the day the lights have been blazing away all day with nobody there. In this day and age with climate change already here - hotels need to do their part to conserve energy (and many do address this) and reduce CO2 emissions!

In an isolated, portside, safe area.
Virtually new, nice rooms, outstanding breakfast included. Use BOLT rather than Uber for easy access to nearby huge shopping center on the water, or downtown. The hotel isn’t walkable since it is in a tiny pocket development near the convention center with few nearby services, but BOLT is cheap and the hotel wonderful. Friendly, helpful staff.

Front desk staff Ashura is wonderful and help me dealing with an over prize Uber. I requested a Uber on line it cost around 13 US dollars from airport to my hotel. When I got out and was met by two person with a Uber staff tags. They told me the car I ordered would not come into the airport. Before I knew,the guy reached over my phone and canceled my order. They told me to go with their Car since it’s Uber. The price when I arrived came to $80 US. Ashura help me deal with the driver. I ended up playing $20 US.

Nice breakfast buffet and hotel staff was good. The location is "clean" industrial, with train track right out front and shipping docks across the street. I think that the property is a good deal with the included meals.

Not waterfront. Good breakfast.
Hotel is not waterfront. It is very difficult to get around (to/from waterfront) on foot. While geographically close, fences make getting anywhere much more time consuming. Good breakfast, though.

This was a great location before getting on the cruise. Its right there! I'm a lil Ocd when it comes to clean before I relax in a room. I use Clorox wipes for everything I will touch! from the door to windows. Me and a friend tag team the room and there was literally no dirt on the wipes! do you know how rare that is?! The cleaning services there is amazing!
