The location is very convenient, close to Dara Harbor. If you want to go to Opera House, just walk, along the road that is passed and behind the hotel are cafes... crowded, comfortable & aesthetic. Finding food is easy. Public transportation everywhere there is a light rail, bus. Best Location

We had a great stay! The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. I had booked 2 rooms for 6 people, and they had our rooms together. Both rooms were clean and quiet at night. The location couldn’t be beat!

Room and bed were comfortable with a great view of the bridge. Breakfast was very good as well. While we did not use the rooftop pool we did enjoy the view of the bridge and opera house in the evening as well as the downtown skyline.

The room was dated, and the bathroom was small and tight. The price and photos are not a clear reflection of what you get for the price we paid. Breakfast should have been included. 5-star price for a 2-star room.

The Check in process was ok as we arrived early. We had to wait until 3pm for our room (which was expected), but it took nearly an hour to actually get our room key and stored luggage. The queue was almost out the door.

We booked a premium room which was pleasant and oversized but a bit plain. Overlooked an alley where a movie was being played at high volume (a special festival), but fortunately it stopped at about 9 pm. Staff were great. Excellent location, easy walk from cruise ship dock and great location from which to explore the city. Stairs from elevator to our room which was very inconvenient, but this only applied to some of the rooms on our floor.

We checked into the room and left the hotel after two hours. The room we are given (205) wreaked of mold as it was visible on the ceiling and around the A/C vent. The room we were moved to after complaining (420) also smelled moldy (albeit not as bad as 205) and the furniture was covered in dust. Both my wife and I developed headaches and were nauseous.

This hotel meets basic standards but not much else. The best feature is location, particularly for the cruise crowd. The cruise terminal is a 5 minute walk. Plenty of shops and restaurants are nearby as well as the waterfront. The staff is friendly and the rooms are pretty spacious. The beds and linen are clean and comfortable. The hotel is old and very tired. It badly needs an update. The carpets and furniture are worn and soiled. There isn't a lamp in the room; all lighting is overhead. There is no full service restaurant or bar but plenty are nearby. The bathroom, bathroom fixtures and tub are right out of 1970. This feels more Holiday Inn than a 4 star hotel. At least Holiday Inn provides a free breakfast. I expected a much nicer place for the price; you are paying for location, not a nice hotel.

Great location. The room was clean and cozy. The staff were super helpful and stored our luggage for us before our room was ready and the following morning before our cruise so we could explore. It's definitely in need of some updates, but has great potential. The water pitcher by the front door was very much welcomed after coming in from the airport. I would recommend single use cups or at least have someone grab the dirties every now and then. They seemed to be around for a while on a Sunday night and Monday morning.
