It is a beautiful hotel with friendly staff and a great location. Here's the only downside: If you have an allergy to pet hair, know that dogs are allowed in the hotel rooms and common areas. If you sit down for a drink or meal, you may be sitting next to a couple with a dog, and while I love dogs, I don't care for them where food is served.

Great Stay
This hotel was the perfect location for walking to the shops and restaurants. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. The view of the harbor was gorgeous. I highly recommend staying at the Brenton.

Property showing signs of wear & tear and not as clean as previous visit. Door handle for bathroom slider in my room was broken. Housekeeping left used washcloths on floor in shower. Scuff marks on walls in hallway, elevator, etc. Door adjacent to bar /front desk needed cleaning. Extended stay an add’l night (Fri.) and rate was $300 more than other nights. Should have been advised of such difference in rate. Wasn’t.
