The check in was a little longer than I expected, but the staff and security were both warm and friendly. Hard to have a bad time on the Island. This place is central, right next to where the cruise ships come in, close to shopping, food and businesses but away from the 'main strip' where most of the tourist are. Loved it! ##### Chris H.
