Best place to stay in Salem!

Great location, on the waterfront, walkable to everything, but still quiet. Wonderful staff, could not have been more attentive and hospitable. We loved the Mainstay Social Club, too. Rooms were spacious and well appointed.

This was an average to nice hotel, but very overpriced for the offerings. They did offer room service. I purchased the breakfast package and they gave me a gift card that was supposed to cover 3 breakfasts for 4 people, but it only covered the cost of 1 breakfast for 4 people. The hotel was clean and the staff was friendly, but the hotel was obviously understaffed and breakfast took forever to get. My main complaint is the lack of upkeep. The hotel room door and the bathroom door were sticky and askew. The beds were incredibly uncomfortable and they do not provide rollaway beds for families.

Everything was great except there was a loud group of partiers on our floor who would not heed the hotels request to quiet down. We were moved to another floor for our second night
