The hotel has great amenities, including an indoor pool, hot tub and shuttle bus to take you downtown. Beds were a little hard, but otherwise room was very comfortable with a fridge and nice bedding. Unfortunately there was a large number of families with children that seemed to be together (travel sports?) and did not have any respect for other travelers. They were loud, running through hallways, the pool and the conference room making it hard to get sleep. Not the fault of the hotel but I wish they had an enforced quiet hour.

Great location on the waterfront
Great location right on the front street and the waterfront. We booked it during the off-season so there's a small construction on the building site. The two-queen-bed room is roomy and clean. The beds were comfortable. The pool area was clean with hot tub. The front desk staff is nice and efficient. The breakfast area feels tiny. We could hear the noise from the room on top of us.

Exceptionally clean
This was one of the cleanest hotels I have stayed in. Some updates are needed (carpet) but it was exceptionally clean. Kudos to the staff at this hotel.
