Rodeway Inn is a great little stay for transfers the next day - this is their core business and they do it really really well. Issy the Manager is very down to earth and has been the business for many years - he pulls it all together seamlessly. Issy co-ordinates the free shuttles to the cruise port and air ports and definitely goes the extra mile. I couldn't believe it when the airport shuttle was running a little late and he pulled out his own wallet and gave us the cab fare to cover the trip so we would miss our flight!
- The free breakfast is better then average with fresh waffles, bagels, boiled eggs, cereals, juices etc.
- Our room was clean and spacious with the only drawback being that it was a little noisy with average soundproofing - we could hear every word of a lengthy verbal argument going on between the couple in the next room however reception dealt with this efficiently when requested.
- The free pick up from the cruise port was efficient and timely - we only waited for around 10 mins. We were quite early to check-in and although our room understandably wasn't ready at 10am, Issy gave us a complimentary breakfast pass and made sure we were comfortable.
Would definitely stay again and recommend to others as a value-added, clean, affordable and efficient transfer hotel. A big Aussie thumbs up!!!

Don't let the bustling, quirky little lobby put you off. The captain of this ship, a flamboyant, people-loving guy named Izzy, oversees every aspect of this place and the elements cohere! The staff is friendly and helpful, maid service is superb, tv cable channels are bountiful AND the remote is not sluggish as it is in many 4 star hotels....the story here is NOT luxury or endless amenities, it's anticipating and then fulfilling guests' basic needs .
Bravo, Izzy! You did it right!

I have stayed here three times, but this was the first one to offer the finger. What is it?? It is a big blue and white foam hand with the index finger up so that the van driver can spot you at the cruise port for pickut--Really works. Robert the driver saw us in the wrong location, and because I am handicaped he came over and helped my wife and I with all of our lugage to the van. He droped us off at our car which we had left for the seven day cruise and in all was extremely helpful for the both of us. I highly recommend geting the finger ($2) refundable--a great practical gimic.

The price of this hotel was just right. The staff were friendly and very helpful during the stay. The rooms were good based on the price. The cockroach we saw in the continental breakfast area was the biggest turn off of the entire stay. The cruise shuttle and airport shuttle was a great service though the morning organizer of the vans was distasteful in his approach and comments.
