DON'T STAY HERE

This place does not deserve a 9.4 rating. The bed is so uncomfortable, walls are paper thin and we heard every conversation made by our neighbors. Yes i know they are renovating but the hotel is still trash. And the workers were up at 630am playing mysic in the hallways while painting. The view of the marina was nice but also u share the horel with the boat owners who also use the marina. They were in the pool using the parking spots and the fitness area. Very unprofessional and made it not very kid friendly. We will not being staying there again and highly recommend others to do more research and just stay at the nicer place called Humphreys right next door.

Construction at property- only notified of this 3 days before visit, and extent of it was downplayed by hotel, but in reality- no bar, restaurant, breakfast. Understand the work going on there and their efforts to improve the site. Just didn’t work for us.

Great location in the Marina

The hotel was going through a renovation during our visit, therefore things were different. The restaurant and bar were closed. It’s in a great location, wonderful views of the marina. We enjoyed our stay and would happily stay there again.

The property is being renovated, otherwise the property conditions would have been rated higher. The staff was very accomodating in assisting us and informing us prior to our stay of the conditions. We have stayed here before as it is one of our favorite hotels that is close to the airport, but with a bay or marina view. Shelter Harbor Island has great sunset views.
