Loved the location...but...
We loved the location but our room had blacked out windows with absolutely no view. Not what was advertised. Our room had two large cutout holes in the wall/headboard right over your head on either side. Yuck!!!!! We could see inside the wall and then wonder what might crawl out. Yikes! Then the shirts were so incredibly scratchy it was hard to sleep plus the air conditioner never cooled even on the lowest setting. Plus the tv remote stopped working.

The location is key. Outdoor dining abounds the street. There are many dining opportunities within short walking distance. The street was beautifully lit with Christmas theme. The Boathouse restaurant overlooks the waterway which is very active. The food is amazing too. Nice place to holiday, park your car, and explore.
