Fantastic hotel, nice little patio, clean and plenty of parking, conveniently located near the harbor and shopping. Includes a complimentary hot breakfast and full coffee machine that made great lattes and espresso throughout the day. Staff at reception was friendly and dining staff great as well.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Lights and plugs in half of room didn’t work. I reported it twice and got no response. Front desk clerk was on a phone call for 30 minutes and ignored me and another guest. Room smelled musty and beds were not comfortable. Certainly not worth the $300 I was charged. Do not recommend.
