Amazing Experience!

superb locationcomfortable bedlimited parking
The location is superb. It allows very easy walking to the pier and waterfront. The hotel's restaurant offered a delicious meal. The food was AMAZING!!! The bed and pillows were very comfortable. I slept wonderfully.
The shower was over a small bath, and accessing it around the glass panel proved quite difficult. On-site parking was also limited and came at an extra cost. This was a little disappointing.
