As soon as we arrived, we were told we had to change rooms because they overbooked. There was no toilet paper in the room and was told I had to go down to the front desk to get it myself. Then I was told that I could only pay exact cash for bottled water and not debit as it was an inconvenience. The girl that was working October 10 around 7 PM was horribly unfriendly and I will never be spending another night at this hotel because of this. This is not the way you treat someone who is paying over $200 a night to stay at your hotel. This person needs to learn how to deal with customers and put a smile on her face.

Check in staff wasn't really welcoming. The bed sheets didn't get changed before I checked in as I found long black hairs in the bed. It was a nice cozy room though and I had a great sleep. Close to the waterfront and nice restaurants with amazing food.

When booking on expedia it did not specify 1st floor which the property calls the basement. The room was a closet and the noise through the night was unbearable. We did not sleep and this stay here was an expensive waste of money. We will not stay here again.

When we arrived there is absolutely no parking. You had to park a block away and carry your bags. The room was the smallest I had ever seen. Our toilet did not work and so we removed to an even smaller room. Only one person could get around the bed at the same time. I would definitely not recommend this hotel

Unfortunatley I am not able to comment on the condition of the hotel property or the surrounding area as due to unexpected events had to cancel. I can comment on the non existance of customer service and lack of responsiveness. While unfortunate that our plans had to change, there was sufficient notice provided to the hotel to request cancellation, which was never responded to. With Expedia interjecting it was hoped to have resolve, Expedia experienced the same difficulties and received zero response to their inquiry. While an advanced request for cancellation was made, no acknowledgement or response was received, on that merit I do not recommend booking at this property.
