We had a Fantastic Vacation and our Harbor experience was so much fun!
Pros:

Love the location. Walking distance to the Harbor. The Gas Lamp District was great. The Food was incredible. We went on Habor Dinner Cruise. (I recommend everyone should take a Flagship Cruise.) Rented Bikes and Explored to Harbor.

Cons:

Additional charge for Hotel Parking. No Breakfast Included. Also we had a terrible experience with our car Rental Car. Never use Payless Car Rental. ( Wish I read there reviews first.) Recommend they should not be in rental choices.

I appreciated the location, quiet, cleanliness and staff but would upgrade.
Pros:

Staff were all amazing! Friendly, helpful, gave great local recommendations and directions. The highest value asset of this property hands-down.

Cons:

For the price, I would expect at least a bare minimum breakfast of muffins, cereal, juice.

If you want a noisy room over a parking lot this is the place for you
Pros:

The property is beautiful and the location is very central.

Cons:

Our standard Mountain View room was overlooking the parking lot and valet. It was noisy. I didn’t expect an oven view room but this was Ridiculious. Staff at the front desk was anything but helpful. The manager was condescending. I felt like I was scammed. The room was expensive. They took advantage of 2 women. I will never go there again. There are other lovely less expensive options.
