Just updated, so everything in the room was very new. The rooms looks great, outside looks a little dated. Outdoor metal stairs weren't great to go up and down. But the value for this place is great. Not really near anything except a park. Parking is plentiful. It was a good place for a 1 night stay.

Room was really nice, recently renovated. Problem was they are still remodeling. And have people working 24 ours a day. So I could hear them working all night. But the room I was in was really nice and the view amazing. I do think it was over priced. As I asked to extend my day for one more night and the price was almost double what I paid for the first night. All and all it’s a nice place and staff was nice. Maybe just a bad time to visit. And definitely don’t ask for an extra night the price point skyrocketed.

I Enjoyed my stay at The Waterfront, the cleanliness, the view and it's quiet. The Only downfall is the Steps and the parking. Other than that, The Staff is Great, the room is clean and the View is Beautiful! Once the 1st floor rooms are completed renovated, I'll be back. I personally can't walk Up & Down all them steps with my bags.

They are renovating, so patients is needed. The room that was available was brand new and very well done. One of the major outlets next to the bed was installed upside down, so none of the USB ports, nor plugs, nor built-in sidelight worked at all. Obviously there was not an inspector after the electrician went through, but sparkling clean room.
