8/10 Good
"If I were booking here again I would not get the ocean view because, as nice as it is, it overlooks the docks, which can be very noisy. It's a floating dock and there's an attached piece to it so that can kind of move around depending on the strength of the waves and can be quite loud. The hotel staff were great. The food was very good. Being able to take the ferry and use the facilities at the sister hotel was very cool."
