All was good - but for the false advertisement of parking being included in the rate which we paid through Kayak. The hotel management insisted we pay an additional $64, although I had the Kayak payment receipt for the 2 day stay, which clearly stated parking was incuded.

Pros (+) We travel by train and it was close to the train station and several very nice restaurants.
Cons (-) We were told on the phone that the restaurant was open but when we got there we found out it was not. They also have disabled the guest computers for printing out boarding passes because of health concerns, but will print them at the front desk for you.

Pros (+) I really liked our room, it had a decent view of the ocean over looking the pool. The walk-in shower is always a plus, big bathroom, comfy bed, fast internet with lan and wifi, perfect location for beach and downtown access, balcony to sit outside and enjoy the weather, and lastly they actually have a lot of good tv channels to sift through at night before bed

I usually always have my macbook on me for work and it has an hdmi out to view on flat screen tvs. This was actually my first experience where I couldn't hook it up. It's minimal but I was bummed cause I stay up later than most and would of like to watch something of mine. Nothing major at all h...

Pros (+) Great location. Beautiful and close to shops on State Street. I also loved the linens and the soaps in our room. I had a great nights sleep. Other reviews complained about not being able to check in until 4:00. That is the policy so you should plan for 4:00. They stick to the policy. There is plenty to do within walking distance. They let us park our car and called us when the room was ready at ab...
Cons (-) For the price, there should be a microwave and refrigerator in the room. There was a stocked minibar refrigerator, but no place for my things.
