Stayed here for one night. Staff very friendly and helpful and location is great. It is right on the water and easy to get to. Unfortunately our room was not very clean with the ceiling fan holding about an inch of dust on each arm and most surfaces were very dusty and grimy as well. There were a few insects inside including some white tip spiders. The interior is very dated with decor probably older than myself including the bed which was very hard and uncomfortable. Again for location and access to the water this place is good but will probably stay elsewhere next time.
