One of the only options...
Liked: Older Marina hotel, slightly shabby around the edges...(note elevator decor!!) Comfortable, clean. Breakfast looked great but we were going whale watching and choose to skip.
Disliked: Can't actually see the ocean. In the heart of the waterfront renovation so extra traffic. The shower was impossible to "get right" The pool was cold

Don’t do it!
Liked: Friendly front desk staff
Disliked: Hotel is VERY OUTDATED.. we paid for a harbor view…. Which was WAY across the parking lot. The bed was HARD. Our room STUNK.. I didn’t EVEN want to take off my shoes because I’m SURE the carpet was filthy…I didn’t take a shower in the bathroom because honestly I just wanted to get out of the ROOM ASAP, we stayed here after a wedding but should have just driven the hour home. $340 which included parking was a rip off … Didn’t have the breakfast as it was a Carb Load. Would NEVER stay here again… and NO, I’m NOT that picky…..probably the WORST hotel I have ever stayed at…. It’s seriously a $75 a night room, and that’s being generous. Just NO!

I do not recommend. Room...
Liked: Location was great!
Disliked: Property is dated. Bathroom was dirty. Walls thin-could hear every word of people talking next door. Staff would tell us one thing but then would be rude when we did what they said. No towels, we were given pool towels for showers. No wash clothes.

Disappointing
Liked: Great location, the front desk of this property was a bit unknowledgeable in managing. Not a very clean hotel. Mold on the walls by the beds and bathroom showers. The breakfast was minimal and lacking any nutrients in the high carb selection. The floor carpet seems to not been cleaned for some time both in the rooms and throughout the inn. Foot traffic at night in the parking lot did not appear to be safe or guests at all. Overall, we will not be returning until better managment takes over.

Disappointing
Liked: Location was phenomenal.
Disliked: For a $300+ a night hotel, i'd expect much softer beds. They were firm and u comfortable causing both me and my wife lack of sleep and shoulder pain.
