We were only there for one night so didn't get to experience a lot. The room was very spacious, right across the street from the pier and around the corner from State Street. Check in was easy, location was great; would stay there again.

Great hotel!
Really enjoyed this hotel. Great location, across from the beach and a close walk to the train station. Beds and pillows so comfortable. We got a room without an ocean view and were glad because the rooms with an ocean view are next to a very busy road. Wish the pool was bigger. Also would have appreciated some complementary water in the lobby and room. Great restaurant next door for breakfast or lunch. Overall great hotel and I would come back again.
