Even though the property was under construction I was disappointed with a few things in the room. The phone was disconnected, when I tried to use it didn’t work so when I checked it wasn’t even plugged in. The tub didn’t drain, we had 4 people in the room and the water just kept filling up. The gym the machines are old and the AC in the room didn’t work. Overall I bit disappointed with my experience.

“They were just holding it together” it was supposed to have a breakfast bar, but it was a couple of pastries and a couple of apples, at best. They served coffee, but no one kept up on the breakfast table at all. If you can handle the mediocre accommodations and staff assistance, the location was perfect.
Literally the breakfast bar table. Entirely.

The location was nice and convenient to shopping, dining and sites on waterfront. Pool was fun for kids. However we did have some hiccups...room not ready upon arrival -said they would call wnen ready and never did. Tv wasnt working, had to move to a different room mid-trip. The new room, the tub didnt drain. Arcade on site would've been fun but the machine to purchase a card wasnt working. Restaurant was also closed..which they did tell us ahead of time. Pastries available in the morning were nothing special. Rowdy guests at 1am on our floor which kept us up, even after notifying staff. They did offer us 15% off our stay due to the many inconveniences which was nice. Stafg were friendly for the most part. Also didnt like thst you had to request housekeeping the night before otherwise they wont come. Overall a nice area but probably wouldnt stay here again

Nice hotel but we had issues with the room next door coming in after 1am from the bar and continuing their party next door. We could hear everything, woke my husband and I and both kids up. Front desk made a call and a visit to the room and then told me that was all they could do, an hour after we made the first complaint they were still going. I would expect for there to be some sense of urgency or need to remedy but that didn't seem to be the case. Not happy with the way it was handled.

Pool was the best thing about this place ...no laundry facilities, it could have also been cleaner. Extra beds are a fee but they dont mention that anywhere. Its a "family" hotel but they didnt accommodate a bed for my child to sleep. The reservation was for 5 people but only 4 got to sleep comfortably. Dont plan on going again.
From wiping the bathroom floor..we had just gotten there.

We checked in and the were told “oh by the way, the restaurant is closed “. That was the main reason we chose the John Carver Inn and was very disappointed we were not told before we arrived. They offered a free continental breakfast which was not very good. They could have handled things much better.
