Great room
Check in wasn’t great they do not have early check in or a free welcome drink like is stated in the hotel description. Other than that the room is nice and big and clean, staff is friendly and hard working they are very accommodating. Also they don’t have 6 restaurants like it says

The staff were terrific. The property was ideally located near the cruise terminal and nature at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute. The room was large and comfortable.

Don’t think this hotel is fancy in any way. The area is nice, but right now music is blasting outside. Definitely a party spot. If you’re not into it, like me, don’t stay here. Very good spot if you’re headed to a cruise ship the next day.

Great value hotel with a great view. Conveniently close to many restaurants, but be wary if staying adjacent to the restaurant next door, as the music does go on late into tbe night.

Based on the online presence i expected more. Elevator was out of service, therefore the luggage had to be carried upstairs. Room was old, not very taken care of. Bedsheets had stains on it and it was very loud due to the bar next door which had very loud music until around 2am. Breakfast buffet was very mjnimal. For the nightly rate i expected more of it. I would not stay there again. Sadly since the area it is located at is very nice!

Great location
We were leery about staying here because of the past reviews. However, our stay was very enjoyable. All the staff were excellent. Bed was very comfortable. Our room was remodeled. Breakfast was good. Made to order eggs and pancakes. very close to ferry. Was a bit noisy at night, but we stayed on the weekend.

Hotel is in remodelation which is odd to stay there, it's not that good as it looks in the pictures. Some people of the staff have kind of preference in how they treat the tourist, if you are American you will get the best treatt, if not, don't expect much.

The room and the property were much better than I thought it would be. Air conditioning worked great, and the view into the bay was spectacular.
At night, the bars had loud music but I'm military and used to sleeping with a bunch of guys that snore so it didn't bother me. Staff was very friendly and accommodating.
