Even before we arrived, we received an informative text with detailed instructions on the parking situation. The accommodations were superior. Tastefully decorated and very comfortable. A good selection of teas and coffee in the room. Located along the shores in Gig Harbor, the views were sublime. Highly recommend a stay-you will not be disappointed!

The parking facilities were quite convenient and safe. However, it was somewhat challenging for two elderly ladies to navigate the steep incline. The view was truly stunning. We were slightly inconvenienced by being disturbed before 9:00 with the sounds of saws and construction work in progress, as we were facing the water. Overall, we were quite content with our experience and would certainly return.
