Person who was supposed to meet us at the dock left work early. We had to walk from the dock to the hotel with our luggage. While it was not an extremely long distance, the expectation from the hotel was that someone would meet us when we disembarked to handle our luggage.

Great, Great Hotel

Great location, modern but vintage interior is really great, starting at the lobby and carrying throughout the property. Room was small but comfy and clean (great bed & pillows). Every employee we encountered was genuinely friendly and helpful. Very personable service. We loved it and highly recommend it.
