Old town feel and decor was wonderful nothing bad to say here

All good. We will stay again. Great price, great value, Close to everything.

Motel standard - poor breakfast - ok for a make do one night visit

I liked the room. It was very roomy and clean!!!!!

The room condition was below average. It was very noisy. There is a train running behind the hotel 1 to 3 time per night. Noise from rooms above and at sides move than normal probably due to no carpeting - just tile on the floor.

I liked the friendliness of the staff. Food quality was not the best.

Negar at tye front is amazing...her boss doesnt know how great she is because she was surprised when i told her, shes mentioned many times in the reviews i read. The hotel's online photos will trick you to book. My 10yr old said its more of a motel rather a hotel. The pool and jacuzzi were turned off and dirty. They had to be renovating because there were old mattresses blocking several breezeways...never moved just sat there all night and day. A smoking hangout area was directly infront of our door, which was weird and unconfortable at times. Just glad we only stayed for one night, passing through...the $100 was a true rip off. We were better off staying in a chain hotel

The photos online are a bit misleading. We are used to staying in 3-4 star hotels and this one was not quite what we thought it was going to be. However, we booked our trip late, and this was all that was left. It met our needs, and forced us to get out and about. The bathroom was in new condition, but the room itself was a bit mismatched with furniture and some worn mattresses and blankets. You could do surgery in the over-lit bathroom. We had one of the rooms pictured online. It was clean and the staff were friendly. The breakfast was suitable with gluten free eggs and potatoes. I was grateful, but my architect husband would stay in another establishment. There was a lovely assortment of cultural families that was more interesting than the usual upper class stuffiness. There was excellent birding in the back next to the marsh.

The front desk - great! Restaurant service was AWFUL! First night, I waited 30 minutes to order. Then got attitude. Second night they brought my appetizer with my dinner AND it was the wrong appetizer. The room was so so, but the bed was like a ROCK. The sounds from the trains right behind the room were very loud.

Staff friendliness. Location. Breakfast.restaurant.

The property is very nice and very clean and convenient. Some rooms are recently renovated. The breakfast was sausage, scrambled eggs, potatoes, toast, and doughnuts. Fresh coffee and orange/apple juices. However, the rooms at the back of the property are about 100' from the railroad tracks. The very long trains came through 6 times during the night and extremely loud. So, if you are a sensitive sleeper, be sure to NOT get a rear/ water facing room.

Everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. The room was immaculate and had everything advertised. I highly recommend it and will certainly be staying again.

Quaint 2 story building. All was ok. Friendly staff. convenient location.

Our room had a nice view of the waterway and greenery behind the hotel and my daughter loved when the train would go by. The pool was also enjoyable. Overall, the location, price and free breakfast - which was more substantial than most mid-range hotels - make this is a really good value.
