Location was key, easy walk to harbor festival. Lobby was small & crowded not enough seating options to lounge & visit w/ friends & family. Dining options on site were weak, went across the street to the Hilton 2X during my weekend stay which had OUTSTANDING dining options.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
We moved rooms (staff was nice about it) for cleanliness - first room had a water bottle still in it and dirt on the floor. Second room still looked dirty - turns out when a very nice cleaning staff member went back in it was nail polish on the floor and the counter. But it looked dirty. And frankly like blood on the floor by the toilet. Lots of wear & tear. It was convenient and in a nice walkable area but personally I’d say stay somewhere else.
