Okay stay near the terminal

convenient location spacious bathroom faulty heating stained toilet

The location was very convenient to get to the cruise terminals. The bathroom was basic, but it had plenty of space. I appreciated the proximity to the city center.

The room was COLD, and the heating was not on.

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.

adequate location, but issues noted

excessive noise difficult layout

the location was acceptable, providing easy access to nearby bars and restaurants.

The noise levels were excessive. I could hear loud music and singing late into the night. the room layout was also problematic, with the bed positioned against the wall. the clothes rail was too high.
