The staff and cleanliness were stellar. Had issue with parking (parking was in an open lot some 2.5 blocks from the hotel) and we had not coffee cups or coffee in our room. Space between foot of the bed and desk was just passable. Beds were great...shower very good.

Great location, free parking although a five minute walk away, bed was wicked comfortable. My room did not have a full length mirror, we were there for a wedding, so that was a little bit disappointing. My daughter’s room had one so we just use that. I stayed for two days but they contacted me one day after I got home saying I needed to pay more money cause I was there for three days when I was only there for two nights. But they corrected it. I would stay there again.

Stayed forb4 nights during New Year’s holiday and had a great time. The location was amazing right downtown near the water and all the activities. The room was clean and included a nice breakfast in the morning. The lobby was really nice and had a full bar. We’ll definitely stay again in future trips to New Bedford.
