We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff at the front desk were friendly and helpful, quickly addressing our needs. The location in downtown was perfect for us, as we were able to walk to all the attractions, including the Pier. The rooftop bar was a popular spot and the Birch and Vine restaurant served delicious food, with a discount for hotel guests. Our room was spacious and had great amenities, such as an illy espresso machine, a comfortable four-poster bed, and a beautiful claw foot tub with bubble bath. We also appreciated the plush robes and the snacks available for purchase in the room.

We had a fantastic stay in this hotel! The room was clean and comfortable, with cozy beds and pillows. The antique touch in the bathroom added a unique charm. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We also enjoyed delicious meals at the on-site restaurant. The best feature was definitely the rooftop lounge, The Canopy, with its amazing view and relaxed atmosphere. The hotel is perfectly located in the center of downtown, opposite a beautiful marina, making it easy to explore this city by foot.

The hotel's location in the heart of downtown, within walking distance to great restaurants and the waterfront park, made it easy for us to explore the city. The staff were friendly, helpful, and went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, such as quickly delivering extra coffee pods to our room. The room itself was spacious and well-decorated, with a comfortable bed, a large bathroom with a clawfoot tub, and nice amenities like plush robes and a complimentary bottle of still water. The rooftop bar and restaurant offered fantastic food and cocktails, and as hotel guests, we were delighted to receive a discount at the restaurant.
