The hotel room had so many great amenities!

Room was clean and comfortable but also pretty old and run down. Water pressure in the shower was weak and the toiletries were gross. There was only one chair and no table to sit at. Staff did a good job of cleaning and restocking towels daily. Breakfast was mediocre. A decent place to stay in Homer but given the cost I'd expected better.
