Pros:Location, nice room with a good view.
Cons:The continental breakfast was very lacking. It was put out once, not much of a choice and it was never restocked. We ran out of coffee quickly and no one ever came to even check much less refill it. The pastries were not fresh. Not what we expected for such a nice hotel.

A
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:I loved the feel of the hotel, it was sophisticated and modern yet nautical at the same time. We were impressed with how large the room was! The bed was super comfy as well. We really enjoyed our time here.
Cons:There was no microwave anywhere, even in the kitchen for breakfast. It was a cold breakfast so the least we should have been able to do was warm up a pastry. There was also no refrigerator in the room to save leftovers. The light in the hallway next to the door kept fading on and off throughout the night and we couldn't get it to stop. Instructions for when this happens would be great. Lastly, there was a parking fee that was completely unnecessary... It's not in the middle of downtown at a shared garage or anything where parking is scarce and even the restaurants can't park there...
A
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:We had a wonderful experience .... From the waterfront location, to being able to watch cruise ships come and go....walking to the Ocean Star museum....walking to the Strand...it all was wonderful!
