Nice view

The hotel itself is lovely and the staff are very welcoming. The view from the rooftop is pretty amazing. The drinks are quite overpriced, but that is to be expected for the area. Everything at the wharf comes with a markup. The beds are quite firm and there are no exhaust fans in the bathroom, which can make it a little uncomfortable with 2 adults and 2 children trying to get ready for the day. The valet option, should you choose to use it, needs a bit of a refresher on communication. 4 times we requested our vehicle and every time they tried to charge me as if we were checking out. I do not think that should be a deterrent from staying at the hotel, just wanted to make people aware of our experience.
