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.

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.
