The stay was amazing. Hotel was clean. We did have issues with tripping the GFI and losing power to our room. The only real complaint is it’s not very close to stored within walking distance. If you need a snack you’re at the mercy of purchasing the inflated hotel price $4.00 for a drink and another $4.00 for a candy bar. Something you would pay a total of $3.50 if you went into a store.

Comfy stay, get breakfast elsewhere
The room was very comfortable for a few night stay. The breakfast could definitely be improved as it was all carbs and once it ran out it ran out (even before breakfast officially ended).

We found some things misleading. Yes they have parking.....but its a few blocks away.....yes, technically you can see the harbor from some rooms, but only if you look over and around other buildings. Not exactly an area i would have felt safe without my husband.
They need to continue upgrading, for example, the wooden ceiling was 4 different colors of wood and my husband (a construction guy) saw mold on the wood.
However, the staff was great and the bar downstairs was the best part of the hotel.

Easy check-in. There was an an issue with our original room. They were quick to find a solution which in this case included an upgraded room. It was our 2nd stay at this hotel. We will be staying there again. 😊

Very loud- couldn't sleep due to people walking around upstairs all night. Our room was dirty but the bathroom appeared clean. there wasn't any soap in the BR-I had to go down to the desk. The whole property was out of coffee. It is a cold dark property.
