Not what is advertised-don’t stay...
Liked: The staff was very friendly
Disliked: The room was advertised as being two double beds but was actually one double bed and one pull out couch. It is a VERY old motel and photos don’t show just how old it is. Very noisy as it’s old and right on a busy road. While rooms are non smoking the room stank of smoke and there were dirty ashtrays on a table right outside our window. I felt duped. I would not stay here again

Cheap, basic but close the...
Liked: Convenient location for the ferry.
Disliked: The receptionist wasn't the most welcoming. Not sure why she wanted to record my credit card details. The room was nothing like the photos. Not even a bed side lamp or power socket to charge the phones within easy reach. The beds were comfortable and that was about it. I guess it was cheap and basic.
