Staff were not very good with the customers. The room was run down. And the parking situation was horrible. I require an accessible spot. In the evening I had to drive around for 1/2 I ended up parking in the furthest location possible. Awfulan hour for any spot, let alone an accessible spot. I ended

Front desk staff was very friendly. Parking at the hotel is paid public parking so no guarantee of a spot...but...staff let me know of a public garage that was only a block away...and the garage was free on the weekends. Very helpful. The restaurant on-site was great...the atmosphere and the food. It overlooks the waterfront and there is tons of outdoor seating for the summer.

Chelsey

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
When we went to lock our room at night we found duck tape and our peep hole blocked. We immediately felt unsafe and took it to the front desk. The girl at the front desk was not concerned at all and brushed it off, telling us the manager would be in the next morning. The more we talked about this we really did not feel safe in our room so we asked to switch and after a lot of back and forth we finally got the “last” room and had to switch at 1am. The next morning we checked out and asked to speak to the manager and the new girl at the front desk was very rude and pushed us away. For feeling like someone was tampering with our room and safety, we were treated like we were in the wrong. It was terrible. No compensation or sympathy what so ever.

The front desk staff were extremely helpful and friendly and the location can't be beat. However, the cleanliness of the room was disappointing. The bathtub appeared like someone had shaved in it and it was not cleaned, and one of the two towels was stained. I would not say not to stay here, but definitely inspect the room before settling in.
