“Here's my impression: the property positions guests steps from the Cane shopping center and Blue Water Quay, while still delivering deluxe appointments in every room. I noticed the Marque Bar & Grill gets mentioned a lot; it seems to be a real draw. River views and on-site leisure add a layer of urban sophistication.”
