Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Our overall stay was great. The staff for breakfast and the front services were all friendly and helpful in accommodating us. The room we checked in was clean and spacious. The only problem was the bathroom area. It was slippery. My partner slipped and hit his head and made a dent on the shower wall. We mentioned this to the manager and he assured us that we won’t get charged because of the accident. We suggested to have all their bathrooms non-slipped because we noticed that there were lots of older people staying that could have gotten into an accident. Apparently, you can request to have a non-slip bathroom. However, we did not know about that. We assumed the bathrooms have some mat to prevent fall. Hopefully, they will check all the rooms and make changes for the safety of the future guests. Overall, this is a great hotel to stay.

The staff from beinning to end was very nice, quick to resolve everything, and greeted us every morning. While enjoying the tasty compimentary breakfast, I heard staff professionally and kindly assist customers both on the phone and in person for various requests. I didnt get a chance to use the pool, but it offered a lot of privacy. We were able to walk from the hotel to convenience stores for snacks, to the harbor/beach, up State Street, and back fairly easy (make sure to reapply suncreen!) The AC ran well, plenty of outlets/room lighting, and was surprised with the mini-fridge! Overall fantastic experience and we hope to make this a bi-yearly vacation experience!

It's located in the downtown, very close to the high school that hosts the water polo tournament that our son participated in. We loved this cozy hotel, with friendly staff, yummy breakfast, comfy beds, spacious rooms, easy parking, and walkable to the town and beach. It's also reasonably priced. Highly recommend it!
