This is our third time staying here. The staff was very pleasant each time. They have done a very nice job with the outside amenities. The inside kitchen cabinets could use a little "refresh", but overall very nice stay. It is a little bit farther down from the very busiest part of Thames Street, but we considered this a plus, and liked the quiet, particularly staying during the week and before peak season. Plenty of parking, and still quite walkable to many wonderful restaurants.

Nice place. Would have preferred a higher floor. Thought 313 would have been on the 3rd floor, but was on the first.

There was plenty of room for myself and my daughters. There should be a sign or something said to or provided to guests stating when quiet hours are as there were guests in the room above that were quite loud until after midnight and I couldn’t call the front desk until morning. Also there should be something provided to cook in the kitchen aside from the one pan with a lid that plugs into the wall. It was very difficult to cook in the room multiple things. It would’ve been better to have an actual oven or at least a stove top.

The room was nice, older fixtures in the room. The elevator was loud and you can hear everyone above you. Besides that it was beautiful and relaxing to look and sit by the water.

The rooms were quite large and allowed for a lot of down time spent in the hotel. It was close to all the downtown shops and restaurants. It could use a few updates, but for the price, it was well worth it!
