The housekeeping team did a great job, always ensuring fresh towels and a clean space. Having a balcony was a lovely touch. However, the price could be a bit high for some travelers.

The housekeeping staff made sure everything was spotless daily, and fresh towels were a lovely touch. The location was ideal for us, as it was close to the cruise ship terminal we needed to get to and near the vibrant marina in the Little Italy area. Everything we needed was just a stone's throw away!

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were fantastic with all the amenities you could need, including a lovely balcony. They were also cleaned every day, and there were always fresh towels - such a nice touch. The service was top-notch, especially the housekeeping staff who were super attentive. The location couldn't have been better - near local attractions and so close to downtown and great restaurants in Little Italy. However, the dining options were a bit lacking, with only oatmeal available. Overall, a fantastic hotel experience!
