the place was the green parrot and was bought by french folks a couple of years ago. the rooms are very close to the restaurant. i just did not fall in love with it and probably would not go back, but you all may love it. we paid our bill with amex and they hassled us, had us go to the front desk so we could tip the waitress and would not add the tip to the amex with dinner, but ran a different ticket. then he had us leave our name and room at captain morgan's just in case i guess. don't know what normal procedure is there, but at captian morgan's everything was easy. then portofino had told us when we were done with dinner they would call and have a taxi pick us up to take us back to cm's. we learned afer we were there they actully meant the ferry would get us so we sat on the dock with one other couple that had come to eat forabout one hour before we could leave. the other couple did not even have the ferry called for them and they waited for amost 2 hours. the food was ok but not worth the hassle.
