Stayed 3 nights. The room was old but it's an old hotel so that was expected. The cost was very reasonable. Room size was ok and what it provided met my needs. The staff were friendly and competent. I'd stay there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This room was absolutely unacceptable for the price charged. We paid $734 for two nights and ended up staying only one night. From the moment we entered, the room felt very dirty. There were signs of potential mold, visible dirt, and old, peeling paint throughout. The bed kept moving, making it uncomfortable and unstable. There were stains on the walls, a very old and broken mirror, and overall the room felt neglected and very poorly maintained. The fridge was loud and clearly not cleaned, adding to the overall feeling of poor hygiene. The bathroom was equally disappointing: a cheap shower setup, with the shower head installed at shoulder height, a soap dispenser that didn’t work, and fixtures that looked worn out and outdated. For a hotel charging this kind of price, this level of quality is simply unacceptable. The room felt closer to a budget motel than a 350$ a night hotel. At any price point but specially at that one, we expected cleanliness, basic functionality, and proper maintenance — none of which were delivered. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere unless major renovations and improvements are made.

Our stay was awesome. It worked out absolutely amazing. The room was perfect. We don’t expect fancy extremely over done places. We love lived in homely places. The staff was amazing. They were able to check us in a little early. We took the 6am ferry so we had lots of time before getting in the room, but being able to store our luggage while we wondered was great. The ac worked. The tv worked. Everything we needed was available. We even cooked breakfast instead of eating out. Overall very happy. We WILL stay again soon. Very soon

The hotel ran out of warm water, and I was unable to take a shower for over five hours after finishing the race. This was especially challenging after completing a long endurance event. This hotel was supposed to be the official race hotel, so I wanted to bring this to your attention. I appreciate your support

Very aged premises. Half the outlets worked. The bed was stiff as a board, and the pillows flat. And there were a lot of damaged floorboards. However the staff was amazing. They let us check in 2 hrs early and check out 4 hrs late. They waived one day of pet fees. You're also are right near the stores and restaurants.
