A great alternative to the standard corporate look hotels around
Pros:

Engaging decor; so much more interesting than their corporate competitors. Restaurant downstairs was excellent for both dinner and breakfast. Excellent location; we walked to the Signal Hill trail and followed it up to the lookout which made for a lovely Sunday morning walk.

Best central location! Cool comfy room. Bar/Restaurant-lots of personality. Get the chowder
Pros:

Sully the mgr was soooo friendly. He went above and beyond. The room was really cool looking ---original exposed brickwall, super comfy bed. Can't find a better central spot. We ate in the bar. Good local food! We wished our travel plans afforded the opportunity to stay longer.

Cons:

Street parking available but this might get tough during height of the season. We didn't have a problem
