Nice unit, great large covered balcony on a high floor overlooking the waterway and the battleship, very appreciative of the flexibility in checkin / checkout times for our stay (although I’m sure that varies based on bookings). Location is as ideal for where we were going while in town and walking distance to various restaurants or night spots. Wish the parking was a little closer, but overall a great stay.
