State Street is now a popular destination for foodies and shoppers. The hotel is conveniently located near the beach, making it a prime spot in downtown.
As advertised friendly staff and clean as a whistle. 👍

great location -- easy to access beach as well as State Street shopping. It is the place to be if you like late-night clubbing.
Standard room somewhat cramped, but nicely appointed.
