Not a restful stay

Pre cruise night stay after a long drive. Room overlooking the courtyard which I would not recommend if wanting a restful night. Noise until late. Housekeeping start early here, maybe 8, definitely by half 8. Constant chatter outside the door and ridiculous squeaky wheels on the carts that take dirty linen away. Get some oil! Finally a fire alarm followed by a warning of a fire alarm drill 10 minutes AFTER! Only highlight of the hotel was the bellman, apologies it was Nolan or Logan I think.

Due to the fact we had to get off our cruise ship early and changes to our flights by our airline, we requested an early check in hoping for noon or early afternoon. They got us in a room at 9:30 AM which was awesome. Hotel is old but well kept and in a great location. 2 thumbs up
