The hotel itself is lovely, and in a prime location. During my stay, I had the pleasure of interacting with JESSICA and SIERRA, who were both friendly, helpful, and genuinely wonderful. They went above and beyond to ensure that we were well taken care of. Unfortunately, it seems that there is only one staff member handling multiple responsibilities, including check-in, check-out, valet, and room service. This was not an isolated incident, as I encountered the same situation during my previous visit last month. For a hotel with rates ranging from $400 to $600 per night, this staffing model is quite concerning. In summary, the hotel is a beautiful place with outstanding staff, but the management should take steps to address the staffing issues to enhance the overall guest experience.

Overall experience was poor. My family booked 3 rooms for my mother's 60th bday. She had 2 rooms and arrived the day before, I had one. Upon booking my room I called the property and asked if I could decorate her room before she checks in and was told I would get a phone call once the room is cleaned, never received the call. When my mother checked in she stated the front desk guy wasn't very pleasant. Upon my arrival no one was at front desk- as they only staff one person and we had to wait almost 20 mins. I parked in the hotel "valet" parking space and gave the desk attendant our key as he is also the hotel valet attendant- we left to go to dinner down the street and within 10 mins he calls us asking if we had the key and where was the car parked, he never tagged our keys so my boyfriend had to walk back to the hotel to get the keys straigten out. We were told all main doors are locked at 11p and to access an outer door that leads to the side elevator- when my cousin arrived at 4a that door and elevator was locked and he had to call the after hours number to have someone unlock it. The whole experience defintely put a damper on the celebration. It wasn't the experience we expected especially for this property.

Very cool vibe with great food, friendly folks

I fell in love with the vibe of the place. It’s very cool. It’s in a fantastic location right across across the street from the pier which I didn’t realize, that was a bonus. The restaurant was unbelievable ..amazing delish gourmet dishes. Just a little bit of a hardship is that they have valet parking only up until 11 is closed between 11 PM and 7 AM. After 11 self parking would not be very close to the hotel, somewhere down the block, which seemed almost impossible. They only have one person who works both the desk and the valet so there is some wait time they could use more employees doing that. Two things that were a little bit of an issue, but definitely not a dealbreaker and we will be back.. the elevator to the rooftop lounge only worked until the the third floor and you had to go outside take 4 flights of stairs, it was hot 🔥 Beds were more comfortable than most beds I have stayed in a hotel. The only problem was that they were both on a wood frame and would creek loudly when you flipped over or when you got out of it. That aside we love the area. There’s restaurants and things to do all around within walking distance the beautiful pier across the street. We will be back definitely

The staff was amazing and our room was very clean. We stayed on a Monday so the restaurant in the hotel was not open, which was a bummer. But, there are so many easily accessible restaurants in the area, so it wasn't too bad. The lights in the "overnight" or "after hours" elevator did not work, so it was pitch dark in there. Take the stairs if you are leaving the hotel after 11pm! Over all, it was a great stay with a beautiful room! I would stay here again.
