A complimentary full breakfast is served weekdays from 8:30 AM to 9:30 AM in a room with leaded glass windows overlooking Bridge and Marine Streets. Guests can enjoy drinks at one of the three beach bars or relax on the terrace. The area has nearby restaurants, though the immediate surroundings are quiet.
