The concierge service was excellent. Nelly and Lauriel were great at setting up tours for us and calling restaurants to make reservations. They gave us suggestions on where to go and if we needed a driver or if we could walk! Very friendly and nice. The hotel is in a great location and you could walk to the waterfront in five minutes.

Noisy

The loacation was top notch - wish the parking was free as a hotel guest. Very noisy in the night, felt like someone was coming into the room. Banging doors, not sure if it was other guests. Bed comfortable, but because of the noise, couldn't sleep well. Food was lovely.
