The manager was very accommodating to my questions.. very friendly and professional, the girls they attended front desk at night were very nice and outgoing.. I paid extra for a late check out, and there was no problem with this. I tried to accommodate my flight time… thank you to the manager and the friendly staff during my three nights stay I would definitely stay again when I take another cruise..
