Relaxing place
I was unexpectedly happy with this hotel. The shuttle bus brought me anywhere within 2 miles, which included everywhere I wanted to visit and had pick up points to bring me back. I did not have to negotiate parking around the city

It’s ok
Clean rooms and friendly staff, but it’s outdated and needs new pillows and beds. The gym is missing equipment and is very small. The location is convenient, close to restaurants and stores.

Day before Cruise
1 night stopover for a cruise the next day. Nice hotel. Good service. A tad outdated but clean. Really close to the River walk which was beautiful. Convenient and friendly shuttle to the cruise port. The only downside is it is a big busy hotel that had 3 elevators. 1 wasn’t working the whole time. And a 2nd elevator was shut down the morning of checkout. But overall a very pleasant stay
