In the city, Residence Inn Downtown pairs a kitchen with a free breakfast. Every suite has a fully equipped kitchen, the hot breakfast is free until 10:30 at weekends, and Rosemary Square's restaurants are around it — about 4.9 road miles from the terminal by our routing.
Parking is the trade-off. It's valet only, $40 a day, so leaving a car here for a cruise would cost more than twice the port's $19.
Marriott runs no shuttle and puts the airport 4 miles away. One pet is welcome, up to 60 lb.
Book it if you're flying in and want downtown the night before, and cab to the port instead of parking.
