Pros:

Beautiful hotel in a historic location. Welcoming and helpful staff. Spacious room (suite).

Cons:

Parking lot - although the hotel reserves a spot for you, it is not adjacent to the property and non guests might just take the empty spots…

Hotel histórico con encanto y excelente ubicación.
Pros:

Ubicación y encanto. Hotel histórico ( estuvo la Queen!) muy bien decorado estilo Art Deco. El personal es muy simpático.

Cons:

La puerta ventana de la habitación da a un patio muy bonito ( con vistas al océano) el problema es cuando otros clientes del hotel se sientan delante de tu puerta pegados a tu habitación ( no deberían poner sillas delante de las habitaciones)

Great location on the waterfront plus center of town. Beautiful art deco style.
Pros:

The art deco design and decor is very well done. Unfortunately there was a very loud party on my first night. When I called downstairs, the staff dealt with the situation immediately and offered to upgrade me and move me to another room. Ate in the in-house restaurant, food was very good as was service.

Cons:

The in house party downstairs was very loud.
