"Our stay was wonderful. The room was very nice with an ocean view. My only complaint was that I asked for a "curling iron" and they sent up a straightener which is just the opposite...and when I plugged it in it didn't work. Also employees did not know that a USB port for charging our cell phone was built in to the back of the bedside table lamp...they seemed surprised when we pointed it out to them upon checking out. Overall the Hotel was beautiful!!!"

Little things were a bit amiss and staff could probably use some training in customer relations appropriate to a place with Emerson's storied history and its cost"

From our studio room, we were on the top floor and had a nearly 360 degree water view and we were right in the middle of the touristy part of town.
