I booked two days. Paid upon arrival. Left after day1. I have been over charged, ..$928.46 total! I called The Port Inn twice and they have denied additional charges even though they are on my online credit card statement. I will never stay there or an Ascend properties again, and I’m spreading the word to all my traveling friends!!

The hotel was really cute! Everyone was so nice and helpful. The only things I didn’t like were we were in the second floor and my husband walks with a cane. It would have been much easier for him if we were on the first floor (we got in late day of check-in). The second thing was our room was very small. Almost uncomfortably small. I had to inch my way around my suitcase because there was no room to put it anywhere. Other than those things it was really nice. We would definitely go back there!
