Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently mention the hotel's modern feel, often describing the rooms and lobby as recently renovated and sparkling clean. The harbour views are a definite highlight, especially from rooms facing the water, and many appreciate being within walking distance of the waterfront and downtown restaurants. Parking can be a concern for some, but the comfortable king-size beds and well-equipped rooms contribute to a pleasant stay.
