Most of the staff was excellent in being helpful with information. My bathroom looked clean except for one area behind the toliet. Room nice comfortable.bell men were very helpful in all aspects including storing luggage while going to the water port. Breakfast was excellent, bagels and cream cheese woukd be a nice addition to go with the other foods. Excellent variety of fresh fruits of many kinds. I was told all hotels turn off air for about 2 hours, the room got warm and I woke up early due to no air, from 4:00A.M. Till shortly after 6:00 if all hotels have this rule to follow it is what it is. I would strongly recommend this hotel and would stay again.
