Beautiful hotel with comfortable beds and blackout curtains. Nice space with a good pull out couch for our daughter and a separate bedroom for us. Great location right on the harbour and walkable to many restaurants. The breakfast in the hotel restaurant (not included) was very good as well.

Staff were extremely helpful and friendly, we were disappointed that the property did t have a pool but Jenna at the front desk got us free passes to the YMCA pool which is just a short walk from the hotel. We needed extra towels and we had them within 5 minutes of asking. Everything was wonderful!

Loved this hotel, spacious room, friendly staff, and great service!! I travel a lot and I usually do not try hotels besides the Marriot series or IHG. I was not sure if I made a great choice but my doubt went away right after we checked in. The front desk was so patient, polite, and friendly. They also had free snacks provided in our room, while other hotels don't, even when we booked executive suites. Breakfast were included in our prices, so we only had to fill out little forms and hang them outside our door the night before, and we will receive our order the next morning, no hassle. Would definitely come visit again!!
