Great place. The staff was very friendly. One thing to know is that the parking is valet only and at the time of this review is $38 per night. Great location. The coffee they have is really good. I'd stay there again, especially if I don't have a car.

2/10 Poor
The staff was very nice and accommodating, but this hotel is insanely overpriced. The room was a shoebox, basically a foot of floorspace around the bed, with fancy decor to mask the fact that its a glorified Motel 6. They have NO parking, we had to park in public parking 3 blocks away and walk with all of our luggage. Its a quant hotel, but defintely won't go back. At least I got to experience what ita like to take a shower in a coffin

Welcoming hotel
Reception team were welcoming and friendly.
Reception area was clean and relaxing.
Valet parking was helpful
Our room walks seemed thin and easy to hear ' neighbours' talking and we were unlucky that they decided to use the outside space to loudly and only moved when I asked at 0015 to be quiet! Great location for seafront and harbour and the shops!!

Small rooms
The hospital and attention was outstanding.Great location down State Street
But the room we selected was a little bit too small we had to squeeze around the king size bed and for the garden view you get the picture
A little over priced for the holidays for the size of room

Staff was amazing. The room is small but doable. The shower/bathroom needs some detail cleaning. Could use some bleach or Tylex. I didnt want to step in the shower without my flipflops. Visible mold throughout.
Otherwise, I had an enjoyable stay.

Great staff and easy check in/check out process. A bit of construction going on so can be a little more noisy after 9a but didn’t phase me since that’s normal business hours. Wonderful stay and the front area is cozy + this hotel is close to so much!

This property appears newly renovated, and has a European flair. It is very small, and the rooms are small too, but well put together, and maximizes space. You are centrally located to everything, and two blocks from Stearns Wharf/beach

Loved the property and location. Super charming and clean. The bathroom was very small and hard to navigate with 3 adults, but we did it. We had a great private patio that we could sit in and all the staff was very kind and friendly.

The hotel was pretty walkable to a lot of things. The location is great. The rooms are very small but nicely decorated. I got a room with an outdoor patio which was very nice. I initially got a room with the a/c not working (and they knew about it because there was a fan in there instead) and didn’t say anything to us until we complained and asked for another room, Which they had available. Wish they would had just put us in that room to begin with. But besides that whole ordeal. The staff was nice about it and the stay was great.
