I had a wonderful time at this hotel! The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, which made my stay even better. The location is unbeatable, right by the harbor with beautiful views. However, I did find the dining options could use some improvement, as the choices for breakfast were somewhat limited, and the room could have been a bit more spacious. Overall, it's a solid choice for a relaxing getaway.
