We truly enjoyed our stay here. The staff were all very friendly and hospitable. The view from our suite was lovely. There was a slightly unpleasant/antiseptic smell in our room and the carpet was worn (not that clean seeming). The bathroom also had a sulphur smell (?). Not sure. If the carpet was replaced and/or wood, I believe it would be 100% improved. Rooftop bar was fantastic!

Great place to stay in downtown Camden

Great location downtown and right on the harbor. The room as spacious and nicely appointed with a small balcony and jetted tub. Enjoyed the small vintage bar downstairs for a drink and complimentary breakfast. There were nice views and ambiance from the Rooftop bar, also. Staff very friendly and accommodating.
