Fantastic Stay, Great Location
sparkling pool fresh berries nice coupon
The pool and hot tub area were sparkling clean. The buffet breakfast included an omelet station with fresh berries. I enjoyed a drink with a coupon from the general manager at the Seaport Social bar (it was a nice touch!).
The parking garage felt a bit tight to maneuver in after office hours.
