6/10 Good

Nice
Great area near the beach for daytime fun, and the Funk Zone for nighttime fun. Easy walk to State Street shops and restaurants. Nice hotel, though our wing was separate and across the street from the main hotel. Tried to use the jacuzzis (there are two), but they were both barely warm, which was super disappointing. Staff very helpful and friendly.

Our new favorite vacation property. We'll be back!
We splurged a bit for this trip because it was a special anniversary, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. The staff at check in and check out were friendly and knowledgeable. The room was spacious and even more beautiful than it appeared online. The property's proximity to shopping and restaurants made it the perfect home base to walk about town. The service was impeccable. The room was magically cleaned and ready for us each day when we returned, regardless of the timing. We loved the wood shutters and room décor. One of my favorite features was the air conditioning. It was practically silent. I'm a light sleeper, so that was a huge plus for me. It's so rare in hotels! We plan to return every year or maybe more. Can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay.

6/10 Good

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.
