I stayed at this hotel for a relaxing getaway, and the view of the harbor was absolutely breathtaking! The room was cozy, but the breakfast could certainly use some improvement. While the service was accommodating, I noticed some areas that have declined since my last stay here. Overall, it had a great atmosphere and decent value for the price, just a few tweaks needed for a perfect experience.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel which is perfectly situated near the beach with stunning bay views. The oceanfront location is a real highlight, and the rooms are spacious and well-appointed. However, I did experience some noise from the foghorn and inconsistent Wi-Fi during my visit, which took away from the overall experience. Still, I would definitely recommend this place for a getaway or business trip.
