Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was very clean,updated and comfortable. Also, they allowed us early check in, which was very nice. The thing I would change, however, is the fact that they shut down the internet at midnight which also left us without t.v. And for night owls, isn't so great. The breakfast was just ok. But they're going through renovations, so maybe it will be better in the future. Overall it was a great comfortable stay for a decent price.

A Very Pleasant Surprise!!

The hotel very conveniently located a block from the Ferry. There is a terrific seafood restaurant just across the street and the beach is fairly close. The ambiance was good and the staff friendly. I enjoyed the weekend stay.

Stay was ok. There 3 days and room service never cleaned room. I have a service dog. You can NEVER leave dog in room and you have to sign an obnoxious form saying there going to black light your room. Not even sure they’re ADA compliant.

Service is above and beyond!

We always stay here when I do company fishing trips. It’s directly across the street from the dock. The hotel staff are always upbeat and friendly. They are always eager to help and are excited to give us advice on local restaurants and fun spots to explore.
