Great location but dated
The front desk associate was very nice and even let us check in early. The room was clean but the sheer curtains were torn. The bathroom leaves a lot to be desired. You can tell this is an old property that needs to be updated. The location is awesome though. Our only big complaint is that we left for the entire day and had the please make up room tag on the door and they never did make up the room. We stayed for two nights.

We had an issue with our magnetic key. After 2 days, the staff finally changed our room. The staff was very accommodating. The hotel is dated and will be torn down next year.

I like the area of the Marina, that it is walkable, and has decent dining restaurants with beautiful fews. Although I have stayed here before, and the hotel is dated and soon to be demolished late 2025, this time the staff member was intrusive. I have my service dog with me, and she made a derogatory remark about him. Per ADA laws, her reference was discriminatory. She stated in a rude voice: " he better not be an emotional support dog!" Her statement was not cool!

Harbor view
We are frequent visitor from Las Vegas and love the area!!! We made a reservation 1 month in advance with possible request for a 3 rd floor harbor view king room. They were already taken by the time we checked in so they accommodated us with a 2 nd floor room. Which was fine for just an overnight stay but we really wanted 3rd floor. It was fine in the long run at first disappointing. We say hi to Sami an amazing GM!!!! This is Mike and Kathy!! Thank you all
