Love the location, parking was available for us, and they set up a cute pet area for our pup! They let us have free drip coffee, ice was available for the cooler provided and they had a promo for free welcome cocktail! The lady at the front was super sweet and let us check in early and when i left my ID at the front desk she tucked it in our room for us which was super sweet!! Will stay again!

Was better than we thought - there is a pub downstairs and thought we would hear it, turns out the sound insulation is decent. There was a barking dog next to us on the first night, we didn’t hear it after that. Good restaurant and bar in lobby. Staff a little disinterested. Decent bed and bathroom!

Great location, nice staff. Room was clean, good size, bed comfortable and great view. Bathroom door didn’t close, drape rod fell down and no fridge. Cooler was ok and the Maq offered ice. No elevator so if stairs are an issue beware.

The room was really nice and cozy, and the bathroom was stunning. The new renovation looks absolutely amazing! The front desk accommodated an earlier check-in for us which was lovely. We also didn’t hear any noise from the pub downstairs at all, but we were in the wing on the other side of the hotel — if we had paid for an ocean view then we would have been in the wing directly above the pub which would have likely meant noise. The Bear was also really good and the oysters we had were divine! Would absolutely stay here again

We had a great waiter by the name of Kyle who looked after us in the bar on our first night there. We had to leave earlier than planned and Kyle was the desk person that morning. When I explained we had a family emergency and had to leave, he was very sympathetic and said he would speak to his manager and see if they could give us any kind of refund. We still had two more nights booked. They were kind enough to deduct one night. Thank you. Kyle is exceptional regarding his customer service. He was a delight to to deal with. Very upbeat and positive. Other staff we dealt with were also great. Great location for the hotel. Rooms were good. Would totally recommend this hotel.
