They don't share that their parking lot is 2 blocks away. In the winter you need to drag suitcases. No valet parking.

Stayed forb4 nights during New Year’s holiday and had a great time. The location was amazing right downtown near the water and all the activities. The room was clean and included a nice breakfast in the morning. The lobby was really nice and had a full bar. We’ll definitely stay again in future trips to New Bedford.

Room set up for only one person (towels, coffee service, etc). Hotel provides parking as indicated in booking, but is 3 blocks away from the hotel. Hotel does not have a restaurant as advertised. Skipped the free breakfast buffet for a full service restaurant.
