We were very appreciative of the room upgrade. Room service was prompt and professional - the cleaning staff did a fabulous job and the same for the Baleen restaurant, the staff were attentive and very friendly and the food top notch with very generous servings.This was one of our better hotel experiences, we would highly recommend The Portofino Hotel and Marina.
