Shoulda coulda woulda
Been here before and it was great. This time not so great. Upon opening the door to the room, there was a smell of some type of odor. Being the type of person that prefers to fix things, I opened the windows and aired it out. Fine. That night, the bed was VERY uncomfortable. Along with pillows that just...ummm...sucked. My gf and I made it through the night. Also, the 2 beds in the room...NOT queen size. FULL size beds so be warned. Also I wanted to spend the next day ENJOYING the area NOT fixing my issue. Bottom line, I left early that night instead of sleeping in an uncomfortable bed.

Lovely location
We booked this hotel because it was near our Thanksgiving dinner location. Our room was adequate but very worn. Another group in our party had a suite which seemed in better condition.

Desperate need of Renovation
The area is stunning but it was immediately very clear that this place is in desperate need of modernisation & renovation. We had a suite overlooking the Bay which was nice but the furniture & decor was outdated & unpleasant. I wouldn’t stay here again.

We stayed in a marina view room. The bed was a little on the hard side but comfortable none-the-less. The views were beautiful, and other than a couple of kids being loud outside at 7am, it was very tranquil. The groups are well taken care of and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I recommend staying here!

Adriana at the front desk set tone for great stay.
The room was nice and comfortable, beds were so comfy, wonderfully large TV, fantastic views. Staff were very friendly. Check in was nice and smooth because Adriana was so sweet and helpful. I had a problem with my back and she was incredibly kind and understanding. A couple things they could fix: Broken window blind slats Gap under door let in a lot of noise from the hallway No working ventilation in the bathroom Low quality coffee and coffee maker Smelly sink water
