We were put in a corner room facing two main streets. The room itself was beautiful but the constant street noise from the delivery trucks and trash trucks made it very hard to sleep. It started at 5:00am and continued the rest of the morning. It ruined what we were hoping to be a peaceful, relaxing morning. We ended up just getting up and heading home.

Very nice clean upgraded rooms. Large property. Disappointing that property has no bar/reataraunt or breakfast. Lots of options in area though. Close to downtown, beach, harbor and pier. Electric bike rentals right across the street. Would stay again.

We were only there for one night so didn't get to experience a lot. The room was very spacious, right across the street from the pier and around the corner from State Street. Check in was easy, location was great; would stay there again.

Great hotel!
Really enjoyed this hotel. Great location, across from the beach and a close walk to the train station. Beds and pillows so comfortable. We got a room without an ocean view and were glad because the rooms with an ocean view are next to a very busy road. Wish the pool was bigger. Also would have appreciated some complementary water in the lobby and room. Great restaurant next door for breakfast or lunch. Overall great hotel and I would come back again.
