Great location and staff

The hotel was on the water, steps from the pier. Great location. Our room and property were clean. A nice touch: the property allows guests to use a refrigerator (although, locked overnight), and they have a refillable water station. I thought the staff were extremely nice during breakfast and when asking questions about the area.

We loved the location, the view, and the staff. The kids loved the pool. The only negatives are that it is an older property, could use an update, beds are very hard and Wi-Fi is weak.

Great location, friendly staff, no hot water.

Located in an amazing location towards the north end of town, waterfront views and within walking distance of most attractions. Staff was super friendly and met all our requests. Breakfast was simple but fresh. Yogurt, fresh fruit, eggs to order, coffee, etc. Two pools on the smaller side but my kids loved them. Rooms were simple but comfortable and clean. They offer laundry service which was a big plus for us. They kept our bags at the lobby since our ferry was scheduled 5 hrs after checkout. Like I said, every member of the staff was very attentive. The only downside is that there was no hot water in the shower. Is really eco friendly, but a little discomforting during chilly evenings. The temperature cannot be adjusted, is pre-set. I do recommend this property, but next time we might look into other options in town simply due to the shower issue.
