Clean but very dated. Bed had 4 very flat pillows so, basically no pillows. I asked about cruise parking,since the sign says "Ask us about our cruise parking." He said "Uhh just come down to check out of here, in the morning, and the people who handle it can tell you." He had the personality of a porcupine. And zero info. I went down the following morning, and no one was there, and a guy was sleeping next to the ice machine. Lol it was no sleep, no info, no bueno.

The front staff were great! The room was fine, the bathroom needs some attention but the water had good pressure and was hot. The breakfast though minimal it served its purpose. We would stay there again. Also, we were able to keep our car there while we cruised.

Both rooms TV’s had to be reset by staff, so technically the rooms weren’t ready upon my arrival at 4:30 PM. Positive note: rooms were clean and organized with pleasant smell. Staff friendly and informative. Price reasonable compared to other hotels in the area.

The room we received looked nothing like the pictures. The carpet was a dirty green and had white stains all over it. There was blood on the toilet paper roll. The bathtub was dirty, peeling and barely drained. A train went by with its horn at both 4am and 6am We booked this hotel as there were good reviews for staying for a cruise. They also took a paper copy of our card and ID due to systems being down. I have a lock on my card. If we wouldn’t have gotten there at 1am due to a delayed flight I would have 100% changed hotels and will never stay here again .
