We had a fantastic stay at a hotel in a lovely neighborhood north of the city. The hotel had reasonable rates compared to downtown and was worth every penny. The rooms were beautiful and large, with a great view of the sound. Everything was super clean, from the room to the comfortable bed and great shower. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, providing recommendations for restaurants and places to visit. We were pleasantly surprised by the lobby coffee, which was the best we've ever had in a hotel. The hotel also had great facilities, including a gym, and was located in a happening neighborhood with wonderful restaurants.
