"Not As Outstanding As The Cost."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
I understand that it was Mardi Gras and I had to make a last minute reservation due to an emergency, but for $500+ you could have put double ply toilet paper in the bathroom. The desk lamp didn't work and the cheapest plastic desk chair was a joke. I wouldn't stay here again.

Nice room and staff. One can actually set the thermostat and the A/C will provide the actual temperature that is set. Had a room facing the water with a nice view.

"Great location, not worth $500."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
If you are cruising this is a great one night hotel to stay at because you are so close to the Terminals for all cruise lines. It's just not worth the $$ Will most likely find another location next time.

Testimonials:

Testimonials icon
"This is a great tool and I will highly recommend it to others. Loved getting quotes from all different hotels in the area. It not only saved me countless hours of blind calling, but it took out the guesswork of where hotels are and what they are offering. I loved being able to check out their websites before dealing directly with the manager at the hotel." D.O. - Hershey, PA
