“This waterfront property faces challenges, as some reports suggest safety concerns within the building and immediate surroundings. While the staff receives praise for their service, addressing these issues seems crucial to enhance the overall guest experience. The views are noteworthy, but potential visitors should weigh these against reports of outdated facilities and neighborhood conditions.”
