Solid Stay Near the Harbor
functional microwaveworking refrigeratorfresh fruithelpful staff
The room provided a microwave and refrigerator. Both worked well. Breakfast included a variety of options. I especially liked the fresh fruit. The fitness center had a treadmill and stationary bike, nice for a quick workout. The staff at the front desk were helpful with directions.
The ice machine on my floor was out of service.

The hotel was very clean. I found the staff friendly. They seemed to go out of their way. The pantry had many options. Breakfast offered excellent choices.
Only one elevator worked . Waiting took about twenty minutes sometimes. The garage did not have airflow, causing discomfort while waiting.
