We loved the hotel's location right in front of the beach and close to other attractions. It was so convenient to walk to State St, Stearns Wharf, and the Marina. The patio area was great for relaxing and enjoying the view. The hotel facilities, including the pool and jacuzzi, were gorgeous. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Can honestly say there wasn't anything not to like.
The location of this hotel is perfect for exploring the city on foot. It is right across the street from the beach and within walking distance to restaurants and shops in downtown. The recently refurbished North Tower rooms were spacious, clean, modern, and comfortable. The hotel facilities were beautiful and the staff was friendly. Additionally, parking was convenient with spaces available under the building.
Nothing all excellent.
We loved the incredible location right across from the beach and wharf. It was so convenient to walk to the pier, bars, and shops. The staff was attentive and made us feel welcome.
Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.
