8.8/10 Excellent! (285 reviews)
The room was amazing with a wonderful view of the waterfront and docks by the river walk. We watched the fishermen clean their fish right from our room. The area is beautiful and everyone is so friendly. The problem was with our bed. We had a king bed that was very mis-shapen. It had a LARGE lump in the middle forcing you to slide down onto the side of the bed and the mattress was so soft it just kind of enveloped you into a hole. It was very uncomfortable and made for a bad nights sleep. It was reported to the desk at checkout. If you stay in 110 make sure you check the bed first before agreeing to stay. The parking lot is being repaired and so parking was a bit strange, but it was safe and OK. It will be nice when the lot is finished. OTHER than that , the stay was great.
