Good location.

Great location. We stayed for 6 nights. Staff customer service was good. lobby was nice. restaurant had good food. Carpet in room needs cleaning/vacuuming. The seal of the bottom door was leaking water to the outside of the shower. Overall, it was a good stay.

I liked that hotel is walking distance from old town but not worth the overwhelming price being that most all old town restaurants and stores close at 930 with the exception of may one or two restaurants that close at 10.with that being said $400 a night is not worth it
