A hotel at an excellent location. Services are good. Since the harbor view room I booked was not ready on time, they waved my two days parking fee. Nice furniture and comfortable bed but no microwave. Unfortunately the bathroom is very dated. Plenty restaurants around harbor area within walking distance. A nice staying experience.

I've stayed here a couple of times. This room was the worst one (223) No soap, 1/4 roll of toilet paper only, dingy linins, very noisy "air conditioner". Overall a shabby impression. They did have a very nice breakfast though.

Location!!!
Keep in mind, this is a very dated hotel but very clean. Breakfast was great. Hot eggs/meat and everything you would find in a normal American breakfast. Location was our choice in choosing this hotel. Right on the harbor, walking distance to restaurants, shopping and attractions. Will definitely return.

Location was amazing especially during Christmas. Lots of good walking areas. Staff was superb. Unfortunately the room was really dirty and as others have mentioned, needs a revamp. But it wasn’t just the old furniture and carpet. It was just a very neglected room. The incredible dust behind the tv, if you look in the coffeemaker well, it was disgusting. Mold on shower tile. Dirt and dust in the soap dish and on Glass shelves in the bathroom. The room key issue was annoying but the staff was super friendly and explained it to me upon check in so I just had to make a few trips up to the front to get them re-keyed which was fine. I still enjoyed my stay here!!
