A nice hotel convenient to the port if you’re taking off from there… Very close to the main streets of shopping and food… Parking is on-site in an uncovered lot… The rooms were tall and large, although a tad outdated… We’ve stayed here on one other occasion and felt it was the right choice for our visit…
