Washrooms dated. They need upgrading with walk in showers. Location is excellent and staff services great. Expensive parking while many hotels offer free parking. Somewhat expensive for overall quality of hotel but location on water and in middle of city compensate somewhat for high price.of room.

Wayne

Billing very poor. They take a $100 deposit which they don't tell you about. When you find out they tell you that if there is no damage you will get it back in 5 to 7 business days if they don't find any problem. They also tell you on checkout that they will email you your bill, but they don't. Very sloppy.

We reserved a waterfront view room months a head but instead was given a marina view room and only because I stated what I reserved, however they said they didn't have a waterfront view room available. Isn't that what a reservation is for?! Therefore, they rushed to clean the marina view room and there was still garbage left out on the balcony. Also wasn't too please seeing a big centipede running across the floor!
