I would choose Marine Inn again. I had a nice comfortable stay. The room was clean when I walked in and it was serviced the two days that I was there. My check in and out was smooth. It was nice to have parking area. Thank you

I was a bit worried because the area this is in is not the nicest (I’m from here). However I was pleasantly surprised. There was ample parking and the hotel seemed safe. The room was pretty nice, nothing spectacular, but comfortable. The guy in the office was helpful. I would definitely stay again.
