Well, in the beginning the check in was sort of rocky but the manager that helped us out I have to say she did a wonderful job and I would love to stay there again. I have to try the deck out when it’s not raining. She did let me know that the next time I come through that she will try get get me something near the deck area so we can relax. Will take you up on that offer. Vince.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The stars are for location, which was very convenient - walking distance to nearest attractions. Besides that, the room and amenities were subpar for the price and the name. I paid extra for the “bay view” room but there was no bay view at all. Bedding was ok except for the squeaky metal box springs. Furniture was old. Walls are not sound proof so we couldn’t sleep well the first night due to noise in the next room. Bathroom was ok but putting coffee maker in the bathroom is not tasteful. Shampoo etc were empty. The breakfast which some reviews appear to praise was pretty basic. The staff at the reception were courteous.
