Very charming hotel right in the heart of the downtown district. We were there on a busy weekend and it was loud in the evenings with events going on around the hotel, very lively! Loved the atrium where breakfast was served with the glass roof.

Great place for the money. Love the location. Sheets and pillows are soft. Free Hot Coffee 6:00 am. It is walking distance to the pier and tons of bars and restaurants. Just don’t set your sights too high and you will be fine.

The room was very old and small. We needed a plumber to come in and fix the shower. The bathroom sink was very old and had very little water flow.

The night staff was great and friendly. But the noise both day and night was unreasonable. The bathroom sink was clogged, the pillows were like hard sacks of potatoes, the shower kept going from too hot to too cold intermittently and the morning staff was dismissive and uncaring. The breakfast was really bad…powdered eggs, greasy sausage and when I asked for butter for toast, they responded, “we are out of butter.” I mean….people paid for this crappy breakfast. Go to the store and get some butter for their pancakes! What the heck? I’d not stay there again. Too bad. Because the property is really pretty. Could be a great place. But managment clearly doesnt care about it.
