Staff were friendly. Check in and out was fast and easy. This place would’ve received a 5 but, because of the renovations currently happening a lot of amenities were closed. The staff do tell you after check in that amenities are closed

Good times...

Great location, 2 block walk from many restaurants and places to drink. They still had construction going on but we were not adversely affected by it. Good times and I would stay there again...

Breathtaking view

Beautiful room with an amazing view of the city and the ocean. Can’t wait to go back

8/10 Very good

The hotel is a great family casual hotel. I just wish there was housekeeping available during the stay. Breakfast is very light and there’s a shared microwave. We also struggled to get linens but other than that everything is great.

George, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice Place

We stayed from 7/9 to 7/12. All of the sites fail to mention that this location has some construction going on. So the pool is closed and any restaurants and bars are also closed. For the first 1.5 days there was only ONE working elevator in the hotel. Room was very nice and clean.

It was a lot of construction going on. The parking was challenge for suv and the continual breakfast didn't have a lot of variety.

Active Renovation and Forced Cold Showers

Hotel is still undergoing serious renovations. This was not very clear from the pictures. Pool, fitness center and many other amenities were not available. Although the room was recently renovated, there were serious plumbing issues in the bathroom. The sink took a long time to drain and the shower took more than 10 minutes to heat up. I would consider staying here again only after the renovations are completed.

Property under construction many advertised amenities not available. Breakfast was just coffee rolls yoghurt not full breakfast. Parking was difficult due to very narrow passages to get to each level. Location was good maybe in future will be up to okay level

The service was great. There was many dining options just in walking distance and like how they had flea market across from the hotel.
