Overall, ok. Nice room. Efficient check in process. Parking was good. Weak water pressure in shower and water took forever to heat up. Free breakfast consisted of a pancake machine, boxed cereal, bananas, oranges, ok coffee, milk, and juice. Lots of street noise.

Great hotel
Hotel was very clean & comfortable. We stayed for 5 days. We got daily room service which was a nice bonus since most hotels don’t provide that service anymore. Breakfast was okay. Not a huge selection but we grab some fruit & granola bars. We were 1.5 miles from the pier. The parking garage was great & very convenient. The only negative was the traffic noise at night. Loud vehicles or emergency vehicles were very loud during the night. However, we were staying in a metro area so it wasn’t a huge problem. Would stay again.
