The location was convenient and the property was exactly what we needed - clean, basic, accommodations. Two minor issues - the room reeked of bleach when we arrived and we had to open the windows to air it out. Second, the frint desk hours aren’t posted and it was hard to reach someone to check in and when we wanted to grab ciffee as we checked iut.

My stay here was perfect for what we were looking for, something walkable and right downtown. Our views from our room was great and they gave me a healthcare discount, which was a bonus.

We paid $420 for 1 night at this dump! I don't know how old the pictures of this hotel are but it is not even close! If I could post the pictures I took I would. Not to mention finding a disgusting dirty towel in the tub when I went to shower so obviously was not cleaned or they would have noticed. Also, could not adjust the AC because they had it locked and it was very hot in the room!!

We booked our trip late and did not have many options to choose from in regards to lodging. When we arrived Friday night, we were optimistic about our decision. The hotel was very close to ferry and one of our fav eatery, The Lookout. The room was ok, nothing great, this is a two star after all. We needed a hairdryer, which we borrowed from front desk, and retired for the evening. The next night wasn’t as smooth. It was Saturday, Aug 30. We went to bed at 11 pm and starting at midnight, it sounded like a party in our bathroom. Yelling, screaming…. 2am still going, now singing and loud bangs… 4 am still going strong another loud boom.. 5:15 am it finally subsides, but I haven’t got one wink of sleep. Awful, disrespectful, frustrating . We explained to the front desk the next day and they promised they would look into. They did and apologized to us saying they contacted the parents of the teenagers in the room and they were talked. That’s great, but what about my reparations? Sunday was a total bust as I was so tired and grouchy it ruined my day. The hotel did not offer ANYTHING… no credit, no voucher for next year…, NOTHING. I don’t blame the kids or the parents… I blame the hotel as they should screen their guests and have security on 24 hours on weekends. I will not recommend this place or ever stay here again.

Overnight perfect spot!

First time at this hotel. Surprised by the service and the property. Easy near ferry and beach and bus line for an overnight stay. They provided towels , umbrellas and beach chairs and kept our luggage until the ferry. So easy for a quick trip without need for car. Rooms were clean and sheets good quality. Pleasant stay.
