This hotel is a gem! It offers stunning views from the rooms with big, comfortable beds and great showers. The service was top-notch, but the dining options were limited. The location couldn't be better, close to the cruise terminal and in a vibrant part of town. The facilities were fantastic, and the price was reasonable for what you get.

The hotel offers a mix of positives, situated in a nice part of town close to the cruise terminal where we departed on a cruise. The rooms are spacious with comfortable beds and good showers, but some might be discouraged by the view. The service is friendly, but it can improve. The dining experience is enhanced by delicious vegetarian couscous. Despite a nearby homeless camp, the location remains appealing.
