The beds and pillows were not comfortable. The location was excellent. The lobby was attractive but the breakfast was not very good. We are not sure if we would stay again.

Very nice.

A wonderful stay. The hostess at check was very welcoming, making for a great stay. Within walking distance of some very nic restaurants along the waterfront. We asked for full room makeup and it was provided with a smile. The property was neat, clean and felt secure. Parking was a combination of covered and open, was in an interior space, sort of a compound surrounded by the hotel., Breakfast was good, but not hot enough, but easily remedied. We, using the tray provided, put eggs, sausage and a pastry on a plate and took it to our room and microwaved it for a minute.
