Un endroit hyper sympa et accueillant pour les vacances.
Pros:

L’hôtel se situe dans un quartier calme et résidentiel. La chambre est spacieux avec un lit très confortable.
De plus, un chauffeur peut vous amener jusqu’à la plage (à 45 minutes à pied. C’est une balade agréable) gratuitement. Nous tenons à souligner la gentillesse, les sourires et la bienveillance du personnel.
Nous recommandons vivement cet hôtel.

Cons:

RAS.

The hotel is really lovely and spacious. It has fantastic staff and food. Would stay again.
Pros:

It was beautiful, spacious, and the staff were really wonderful. Food was excellent!

Cons:

The pillows were so thick and hard that I had to remove a pillow case to put it on one of the feather stuffed decorative pillows from the couch. Never have I experienced that before at a hotel. Also, there should be a door to separate the toilet area from the rest of the bathroom, and a fan in the toilet area for odor reasons.

Cute Boutique Hotel, Away from Tourist Trap
Pros:

The Ambrose is such a cute boutique hotel. I like to stay here when I come for work because I can walk to my HQ nearby. They also have a private car service that can be used within a 3-mile radius for either drop off or pick up until 8pm. Ask for Molly! She’s the best! (Only downside is the hotel doesn’t have a restaurant but they do offer coffee and tea 24 hours, light bites, and happy hour from 5-7. Plenty of good restaurants are nearby.

Overall a decent hotel to stay but probably won’t come again due to the money value
Pros:

1. Welcoming staff
2. Happy hour with a good variety of wine to choose from
3. Free Tesla charger in the parking garage

Cons:

1. Very loud A/C. Had to turn it off for a sound sleep
2. Parking fee is expensive. $55/day with additional 18% city tax
3. Location: close to a hospital ER and can often hear the ambulance alarm.
