Was in town for a wedding – this this hotel for exceeded my expectations. Location ,clean and super professional staff.
Pros:

Great location – close enough to little Italy to walk to, but far enough away from the noise to have a quiet stay. My room was great. Upgraded me to a Bayview room for a small additional fee well worth it – 14th floor! Staff was attentive and courteous. All in all one of the best hotel stays I’ve had in 50 years exclamation point highly recommended.

Cons:

I only have positive things to say about this property!

Pros:

Cleanliness, the organization and easy going staff.
