lovely breakfast and friendly service

superb breakfast guest lounge complimentary soap

kayley provided a superb breakfast. she even made a veggie option for me. she also allowed us to hang out in the guest lounge after we checked out as we had time before going to the cruise terminal. complimentary soap and shampoo were also available.

I was a bit concerned about security because i got one key. It opened both the front door and my room. it made me wonder if one key could open all the bedrooms. the shower was very small with the water temperature going from hot to cold!
