The bed was comfortable, breakfast was good, just for $350 a night I would expect more but location
Pros:

Only room we could find in area due to soccer tournament and sand castle contest.

Cons:

Room was a little tired and unable to get dark due to the blind on the door. Nice being walking distance to beach but view was not of the river but of the bridge.

Cons:

We were told upon check in that we would need to wear ear plugs because the bar across the street is loud every night and people leaving always wake people up. They were right.

Good downtown location on river
Pros:

The hotel is in a good location; nice view of the river to watch the waterfowl; staff was very friendly and helpful. Cookies and juice in the afternoon and clam chowder later were a nice touch. The breakfast was good and substantial; we especially loved the biscuits.
A big downside is the lack of towel bars. We are fine reusing our towels but need a place to let them dry. One hook on the back of the door is not sufficient for more than 1 person. It would also be nice to supply more washcloths at the start as housekeeping does not come to replace them daily.
The other issue we had was lack of any light to operate the coffee machine. I had to use my flashlight in order to see the fill line for the water.
