Wonderful Location and Clean Rooms!

perfect location clean room comfy bed
The location was perfect. Many restaurants were nearby. The cruise terminal was also close, so it was very convenient. The room was nice, clean and fairly spacious! The bed was very comfy too.
The bathroom door didn't lock, a small inconvenience.

unlocked patio doors unsealed shower cubicle
the location was good for accessing nearby amenities.
the tv had limited channels, requiring personal app logins THAT WAS annoying. ALSO, there were concerns about safety BECAUSE the patio doors WERE unlocked and the room door had gaps ALL AROUND IT. finally, the shower cubicle was not sealed properly, causing water to leak EVERYWHERE.
