Guest Reviews & Ratings

What Guests Are Saying?

United States, February 2024

6.2/10

The hotel rooms were dark and lacked air conditioning, making it uncomfortable during the hot summertime, but our two-bed room had a tattered piece of carpet filling in a gap. The location was excellent, a couple of blocks from the town center and away from the pier area, offering a small kitchenette. The dining options were limited but satisfactory, mostly offering milk and cereal for breakfast. Overall, the facilities were basic without significant amenities available.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms were comfortable and had some nice amenities like a couch and dining table, the beds were a bit lumpy and uncomfortable. The location was great, just a short walk from downtown and convenient for reaching the ferry terminal and airport. However, there were some aspects that left a lot to be desired, like the limited dining options and the overall impression of the place was not the best.

The location was very convenient to downtown attractions, just a few blocks away and within walking distance. The dining options were limited but satisfactory, and the service was good overall with available shops and laundry services.
