Loved this hotel!!! Location is amazing and staff were super nice and helpful! The only thing that would have made the stay better would be to have a coffee maker in the room but they do have coffee available downstairs for guests. Would definitely stay here again.

They had parking available for a certain type of vehicle vehicles. My vehicle did not fit a standard trucks. Location is very inconvenience. Parking is a hassle too expensive for the parking rooms are boxed in. They’re tiny for the price. Staff was uncaring unwilling to uncheck us in after we told her we were not staying but hour to figure out what we were gonna do. Will not be going there again.

Clean and safe hotel in a great area surrounded by restaurants and a close walk to the water. Staff also went out of their way to help my elderly parents who were not staying at the hotel, but plans changed after getting off a cruise ship and needed a place to store luggage before their flight out. Staff also booked them a taxi to the airport. They were very professional and just great.
