I stayed here for my last night of vacation since the hotel has a free airport shuttle. Was already upgraded to marinia view, from 2nd to 8th floor before I checked in around 11 a.m. I could also see the bay. The room had a couch and refrigerator; bathroom is small. Even though restaurants had to close dining-in a few days before I checked in here, the restaurant was open for breakfast and dinner for seating on outside and three tables next to the open door. Menus are limited. Gold/diamond breakfast is a $17 + tax credit toward whatever you order.

I really like the views and location, but I would need a car (which I try to avoid as much as possible) for staying more than one or two nights since there's not much within walking distance. I did find a reasonably priced lunch at Tom Ham's Lighthouse, a 5-min. walk, and picked up a made-to-order sandwich at the deli next door for supper. The convenience to the airport can't be beat.

Added: I was surprised and pleased to see a stack of USA TODAYs on the way to the elevator. I still prefer a hard-copy newspaper but haven't seen one in a hotel in a long time.
