Cons (-) It was a big disappointment. The hotel was very dated, and the front desk staff was cold/unfriendly. This hotel should have cost below $100. Instead, we paid approx $375.

Pros (+) Location is ok, on the edge of easy walking distance to the Old Port area.
Cons (-) For the price would have expected bigger, nicer rooms. It was just "ok", not a great value for the price paid.
