Maria

Liked: Cleanliness
Loved the idea of all the rooms being full suites with kitchen amenities and that the windows opened for fresh air. The beds unfortunately are far too soft and squishy and we both woke up with sore backs. Also, there need to be more variety of menu choices in the dining room. It's very limited. We did however really enjoy our breakfast the next morning.

This is a great property! We took the clipper and so close to the terminal. Also, very walkable to downtown. We stayed in a two bedroom suite which proved our family separate space but in the same room. Would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed all of the amenities at this hotel. The staff is very friendly and courteous. The room is very spacious with a great kitchen. There is a restaurant downstairs as well if you don’t want to cook. The beds are very comfortable which helped to make our stay even more wonderful!

The restaurant was closed on one of the days. When it was open it was understaffed and had to wait a very long time to get service- I opted for take out, but baked goods were very dry suggesting they were old and stale. We did not use our drink vouchers because there was limited service due to staff
