This place is a beautiful getaway. The room was very clean and smelled nice. I loved the view of the bridge and how there was even a little balcony to hang out on and watch the ships come to port. The fireplace puts out a ton of heat which was amazing. The breakfast was a collaboration of local vendors and the food was fresh and delicious. Even the coffee was on point. The staff was courtious and knowledgeable about the surrounding area. This place has a lot to offer. 10 out of 10 would visit again!

The room was absolutely amazing! Very clean and fresh smelling. The view was BEAUTIFUL! I couldn't have asked for a better experience when it came to the room. The reason for the 4 stars- the breakfast was bare minimum. The "parfait bar" consisted of half frozen yogurt with a couple toppings to choose from. Coffee was not the greatest either. But other than that. Room was spectacular!
