We wanted a unique experience so staying on a boat in the marina was perfect. It’s in a great location and felt safe for two women. Everything was clean and as expected. We had rain other than our first night- so that night we took advantage of the cool upper deck of the boat.

Description was accurate. Noisy area but seemed safe enough and close to clubs and restaurants.
