They charged for any small extra such as checking in early even thought the rooms are clean and available. Even a bottle of water at check in is charged. As well as late check out etc etc. every little thing will come with a charge.

Lets start with the check in. Friendly staff greeted us and the pips (Nacho and Pepper). They got us checked in quickly but had time to greet and spoil the dogs with treat bags. The room is beautiful and well appointed. Nice view south over the docks and full advantage of the sunrise. Minnos spoiled us and served the niceat food by servers who know their jobs and obviously enjoy it. All the way around a premium place to stay

The room, with a partial view, actually has a substantial view. The staff was excellent and the breakfast room is light and airy. The hotel is located a one minute walk from the Port Theatre, where we had tickets for a concert. All in all, a top choice for hotel.
