Hotels near John Waples Memorial Playground

"One of the cleanest rooms we've ever stayed in. Kudos to the housekeeping staff. This is an older hotel. It seems like it was renovated in the last 5-7 years. Spartan decoration. Extremely spacious. Very decent bed. Great view to the water from our room even though it wasn't one of the directly beach-facing ones. The stairs (only way up and down) are a bit odd. The different widths of the steps made for some iffy navigation. It was relatively quiet while we were there, but you could tell that if the noise level in the halls rose, you'd hear it in your room pretty clearly. Parking is at a premium, and it is extremely tight quarters. In season, it would probably be annoying. There is overflow parking across the street."

"It was just okay, nothing special."

"Here's the good: - nice location - clean linens and carpet - nice pier to sit on overlooking the bay. Everything else: Booked a month or so ago. Arrived to discover they were renovating parts of the hotel, and that my room was directly over top of where workmen were cutting large slabs of marble with saws. When I inquired about the noise, the staff only said "Oh, we're renovating." Constant power sawing went on for two days. The morning of check out, I was in the shower when the water was cut off, no warning, because they were apparenlt redoing the washer-dryers outside my room. I don't normally write negative reviews, but the three day vacation I tried to go on was hampered by poor weather. I couldnt retreat to the beach, and the hotel I booked to relax was under construction. I understand needing to renovate, especially during off season, but I would have booked somewhere I could actually take a nap for my vacation. Super disappointing."
