Did not like the lack of parking due to pick-ups with their boats parked sideways taking up 6 spaces. Did not care for lawn maintenance noise outside my window startling me awake! I probably will not stay here again.
My flights were delayed and i arrived quite late to the hotel and my room was still waiting for me. That was such a relief after a long long long day of travel.
This hotel is pretty much it near the cruiseport and the zoo. Otherwise, the area is fairly deserted. Dining options are the Wendys next door or have it delivered. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good. The hotel looked clean. There was some traffic noise from the expressway but it wasn't terrible. If I were going on another cruise, this is the place that's the most convenient.
