The property only has one redeeming virtue - it's right on the water, so you wake up to birds on the water. Other than that, the property is old, poorly kept, with indifferent staff. It could really be a gorgeous hotel given its location but the owners are more interested in spending as little money on maintenance and cleaning as possible. the corners of the room are disgusting. the bed, toilet, etc were clean enough.

Stay someplace else! First off we were looking for a quick nearby hotel to crash between flights. So we booked this. Big mistake. Shuttle arrived 45 minutes after we called for it. Waited 20 minutes at desk since no one was there after getting off shuttle. Stay cats wondering property, dogs are allowed in rooms as well. Entering the room I noticed it was dated around 80's era, ironing board was rusted and torn, front door had wood crack that you could see outside if placed eye near it, towels were dingy white and a few stains. Only good thing was nice view of water if you walked to end of hallway. We checked out within 15 minutes and checked into Holiday Inn right next door to this hotel
