Excellent hotel in a great location and friendly staff.
Pros:

Location was great because it overlooked the bay and was close to the airport and seaport village. Also, was close to a decent Laundromat on. Midway Bld. Since the hotel didn't have a washer and dryer available to it customers to use the Laundromat was a great option and probably cost less than it there was one at the hotel.

Cons:

There was no complimentary breakfast included. Since the hotel was attached to a restaurant/bar it made it's customers pay for meals at the restaurant. It would have been more convenient if the hotel offered a laundry room for its customers to use for laundry services.

Great hotel , just one small issue
Pros:

Loved the location & convenience to the airport.

Cons:

The AC in the room was extremely loud. It kept shutting off & on throughout the night. We would have to shut it off completely each night because it kept waking us all up.
