Good quality accommodation
Pros:

Beautiful large room with plenty of space for us and all our luggage.

Cons:

Due to its location next to busy roads, there is an almost constant noise of traffic which may interfere with sleep for some. Climbing up the steep hills to 6th Avenue from the waterfront is strenuous.

Convenient, but disappointing.
Pros:

The location was nice, and the bed was comfortable

Cons:

The breakfast was the most disappointing as we were informed on checking in that we had a complimentary breakfast, however since my Marriot Number was not applied to our second night, we were turned away at breakfast with two full plates of food in our hands. It was incredibly frustrating and disappointing.

Basic accommodations that won’t impress u
Cons:

Needs more lunch and coffee breakfast options, for example a full Starbucks. Service in the fig restaurant for break fast was very slow, food took 30 minutes. Perhaps understaffed

Un authorized charge
Pros:

cleanliness

Cons:

no complimentary coffee in the lobby in the morning. When I got up at 6 my husband was still sleeping so I would have woken him up to make it in the room. When I went down stairs the charge was $10 and change for 2 cups and when I got my cc statement the hotel took the liberty to charge my cc $22. not sure why. I was disappointed. The rooms are good but narrow. Beds are comfy and clean. The location is at the top of the hill so walking to the pier is all down hill at first then all up hill to return.

Very nice weekend stay. Wished I had stayed the entire day and rekaxer a bit more. .
Pros:

1)Convenience of local attractions.
2The room was very roomy & spacious and liked that I could spread out on my side of the room as I had to set up my CPAP and recharge my phone. Thank you.

Cons:

1) The transportation we used was less than desirable (e.g. using what we thought was Uber app was not what we experienced. However when we ordered transportation from the hotel concierge it was really great.
2) There was nowhere to hang our wet towels in the bathroom. We ended up hanging them in the closet to dry.
3) There were also no hooks to hang my wet shower cap to dry??

Good location, served its purpose
Pros:

Location was great, allowed us to walk to waterfront

Cons:

Was never able to try the hotel’s cafe, as it was never open. We did order donut holes from the bar; tasted fine but pricey. Relied on the market around the corner for snacks and coffee. Was glad for the onsite parking, but wasn’t prepared for the nightly fee.

good hotel but can be done well better after upgrating the old facility
Pros:

location is the quite good, but the window's insulation need to be upgraded. my room is facing the highway and noise level is way to high for a good sleep.

Cons:

noise, noise and noise. I have stayed with other hotel with the same situation of facing a busy highway, but their windon insulation is way better.
