It's a fantastic location, steps from the waterfront and easy walking distance to all the great restaurants. My only complaint was that the room was noisy.
Wonderful experience- great restaurants- attentive staff. Nice shower, quiet A/C, spacious room.
Could use a mini fridge- otherwise perfect!

We had a wonderful stay. The room was nice as well as the bed and bathroom. We were unfortunately next to the storage closet and the cleaning staff kept opening and closing way too loud starting at 8 am. We will go back, but stay in a room away from that closet and not on the street side. There were people blowing trash and debris around 8 am as well.

We felt very pampered as soon as we entered The Vendue. The valet gave us an overview of the inn and we were quickly greeted in the reception area with a glass of champagne as we were escorted to our gorgeous room . The inn was wonderfully located near shopping and restaurants and we didn’t need our car while there. I only wish we had stayed longer. You won’t be disappointed!

Quite frankly it was a nightmare. It started with sewer gas in the room, a key that all of a sudden didn’t work after returning from a wedding celebration, a rat seen in rooftop bar and overcharged for an upgrade to have windows. Buyers beware
