Hotel was good to look at. Room was ok. Service good. Overall, nothing special for the price point. Restaurant was over-priced and average food. Cocktails were great.

The room was beautiful, and the hotel is in a great location. We got an early check-in, always nice. Lots of restaurants in the area. Easy walk to the wharf and beach. Going the opposite direction on State St., you come to the busy area of State St. Further on down (10 min. drive), you come to lower State St. with a calmer vibe of restaurants and shops. Wish we had been able to stay longer.
