Disappointed.

Unfortunately, I was very disappointed. My bed was extremely uncomfortable. Very soft on one side with a hump in the middle. There were bleach stains on a chair and on a blanket. The arms of one of the chairs was very badly soiled, and there was a smudge on my headboard. Water pressure was not good . We were also not aware of renovations that were going on on the first floor, and the elevator did not work for most of our stay. though I was offered another room, I declined as I was only staying 2 nights and it was a hassle to move. The valet and bus boys were extremely helpful and so nice though.

One of the best we found across USA coast to coast

One of the best hotels we stayed at in our 5.5 month 16000 mile tour of the USA. The wine and cheese plus a welcome bottle of wine just added the finishing touches to the lovely room overlooking the harbour. Only slight thing was the flacky WIFI. 80% of USA hotels we used suffer with this issue. With international travellers this is a key need due to roaming cost on mobiles.
