We chose a view of the bay rather than the court yard. The street can be noisy. And the rooms are over the bar so early am patrons exiting carry the party into the street. Ear plugs are offered at check in.

Great location, cute with lovely lounge

Great location, super cute hotel, especially the lobby area. Was a very nice touch to get a drink upon check-in and the staff was lovely. Couple of things in our room that could have been better: 1) there was no outlet in the bathroom (!?!) & 2) it was a double bed (the room overview said it would be a queen) in a queen frame. Because the frame was too large for the bed, we kept mud-judging where the corners were and our shins are covered in bruises - ouch!

The best part about the Maq is the building. Love the old character mixed with modern quirkiness. The front desk staff were 2/5. Next time we will pay a bit more to get a location on the water with hot tub etc. and better staff.
