There is ample parking in the hotel's large open-air parking lot. If you use the yourparkingspace app it's about a third of that price.

helpful staff beautiful view short walk high fee loud noise missing fridge

The hotel was near the cruise terminal. it was a short walk to get to the ship. The staff was very helpful. they were quick to assist with luggage and directions. My standard super king room view included a beautiful view of the water. i really enjoyed watching the ships come and go.

The noise was quite loud! early in the morning. The on-site parking had a high fee! it was more than i expected. My room did not have a mini-fridge. this was inconvenient for storing drinks and snacks.
