8/10 Good
"At times it was a little noisy, hearing sounds from outside the room door or the floor above us. Staff was very helpful, scheduling shuttles for us, providing info for restaurants. As far as the breakfast, it would have been helpful if there was at least one gluten-free bread option and one non-dairy milk option for coffee or oatmeal."

Hotel Sorrento

10/10 Excellent
"This is a charming hotel in a great location. The staff is top notch. I felt perfectly safe walking the area by myself as a disabled woman. Breakfast is fantastic. Dinner is hit or miss with some items being great and others mediocre. Overall, a great stay and we definitely plan to stay again. Due to the location there is road noise you can hear in the room. It didn't bother us, but you may struggle if you are a light sleeper. There are restaurants, coffee shops, and a great convenience nearby."
