My stay at The White Star Tavern was a mixed experience. The historic charm of the hotel was good, and the staff were welcoming and attentive. However, I encountered issues with the cleanliness of my room and the overall noise levels, especially during peak hours. I enjoyed a delicious breakfast, but some facilities, like the bar service, could use improvement. 🛏️✨

I recently stayed at The White Star Tavern for two nights and had a great experience. The location is perfect, especially if you're cruising from the Ocean Terminal, which is just a short walk away. The staff were warm and incredibly helpful, making my stay enjoyable. However, being above a busy pub, it could get noisy at times, especially with garbage trucks outside early in the morning.
