The property staff was amazing. Very friendly and was eager to help with anything. Only reason why it wasn’t a 5 star for us, was regarding the bathroom. When you would shower, the entire floor gets a bit soaked. Besides that, we loved our stay and how close it was to the beach/restaurants.

No hot water for two days was a total bummer. The rooms are tiny. You will not have room to open a large suitcase unless you put it on your bed. Great location though. Pretty lobby. Know that you are literally right next door to the train station. Wine in the lobby in the afternoon is a nice touch.

The location is superb, walking distance to beach and State Street with eateries and shopping available. Hotel is lovely and newly renovated. The rooms are small but there are nice places to gather within the hotel - the lobby area, patios, and nooks. The staff is super friendly and helpful and we enjoyed the wine tasting offered on Fridays and Saturdays. Unfortunately, our room was next to the garbage collection area of the next door pizza place and we heard the truck pickup at 4 am Saturday. So maybe check which room you get?

This hotel has an excellent location, close to downtown, the beach and pier. There was also an outstanding restaurant right next to the hotel! The lobby was very nice and the staff were friendly, welcoming and very helpful! They were very flexible with check in and check out which we really appreciated. The room was small but nice with a comfortable bed and nice bedding. The bathroom was ridiculously small with a weird glass door between the shower and toilet that folded in towards the wall and then opened when using the shower along with a shower curtain. The parking was not free but had a valet and they allowed us to stay parked after check out on our last day which we really appreciated.

The location was perfect close to the beach, great location. The staff was 5 stars, the common room was inviting with coffee, games and generous seating.
