A nice place, easy walk to waterfront. Far from center of town (too far for old people to walk)

Highly recommend
The staff and service were excellent. The one issue was the bathroom door which made a very loud squealing noise upon opening and closing. So loud that the other guest on the floor could hear it whenever the facility was used.

Ok, but not our favorite place.
It was ok. Really noisy at night with other people coming in late at night. They were very inconsiderate about others sleeping at 11:30pm.
Made to pick out breakfast, but wasn’t the breakfast we ordered. Still, what we got was just ok.
They had some smelly like thing in the room. Had to place them on the outside window ledge, because it gave us a headache.
