Everything was terrific until the bill for the buffet breakfast. I thought $19 each was pretty steep for what it was.

Nice setting over the bay. Room very clean and amenities that suited us. Friendly reception staff. There was a slight rumbling noise during the night - seemed to be coming from an outside machine which came and went. Maybe need to get checked (Room 47)
