The place is exactly as shown. Its above a restaurant, but its not really loud at all. I did like sitting on the balcony, but there was a weird smell comign from the sidewalk or restaurant i don't know, but if you keep the windows closed, you don't smell that odd smell it. YOu can see a glimpse of the water, theres a great live jazz two blocks and the restaurant was a very good. two blocks to the left if youre standing on the balcony. Place was very clean, comfy bed, large bathroom, amazing and warm fireplace at night cause it gets cold. Extremely quiet at night, not a sound. I would stay there again.
