Has anyone ever stayed at Clarion Collections Las Palmas Hotel & Suites in Miami?

I'm going on a cruise that leaves from the Port of Miami and I want to know if this hotel is close to the port and if it had nice attractions close byHas anyone ever stayed at Clarion Collections Las Palmas Hotel %26amp; Suites in Miami?
I am booking this hotel myself for a pre-cruise night in May. This hotel is just NW of the airport, about 10 mins away, however, my travel agent is arranging transfers to the port from the airport, so just take the shuttle back to airport in the monring and find the cruise reps on the arrivals levels. It is about 30 mins from the airport to the port. This is the easiest way. If you are only going to be there one night you really won't have time to see attractions, if more, then anywhere in Miami you would nee a car. I have read the reviews on TripAdvisor and the reason I selected this hotel was for the 24hour shuttle (call from airport) and the deluxe free breakfast. Also the fact that it is not outrageously priced. These are the nearby attractions:


Doral Golf Course - 0.25 mile


Vizcaya Museum and Gardens - 9 miles


Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden - 10 miles


Parrot Jungle and Gardens - 10 miles


Miami Seaquarium - 12 miles


Key Biscayne - 12.5 miles


Collins Avenue - 13 miles


Art Deco District - 13 miles


South Beach - 13 miles


Metrozoo - 13 miles


Las Olas Riverfront - 24.5 miles


Fort Lauderdale Yacht and Beach - 24.5 miles


Florida Everglades National Park - 32.5 miles





Hope this helps and hope you have a great cruise. What line/ship are you going on and when?
