"I was pleased to see they had one [jetted soaker tub]."

i booked a weekend getaway. the hotel is very centrally located close to the harbour. service was friendly, and i got a nice room. rooms were clean with hardwood floors.
the old coffee maker was disappointing. the toiletries in the bathroom were terrible. parking is the worst, and i shouldn't be concerned about it while paying to stay.
