The property was a great location to everything. We parked our vehicle and walked everywhere for two days. We didn’t want to drive anywhere for fear we would lose our spot. They have limited spaces and it’s not on the property but across the street. We checked out early and drove across the bay to get a few pictures before leaving town. My only other complaint is having to order a breakfast the night before (we didn’t do this) but was told they could make us toast and coffee for $10.00😳 We had a king bed room with a very comfy bed, hot shower with great pressure on the second floor and was really quiet.

Beautiful views in a classic older building. The room is generous, although the bathroom is a bit tight, but clean and well maintained. Very close to all the restaurants and sights you can easily walk to.

Cynthia, Hampton

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The staff (older woman) was rude. Her attitude tainted the whole experience at the hotel. The good: Great location; clean (but dated) bathroom; basic bathroom amenities which many small hotel operators don’t provide anymore; Air-con (loud unit, but better than nothing. The bad: stains on the sheets — needs replacement; scuffs on the walls; dated accommodations; hot water takes a while to heat up, but it does get hot. The shower is a corner plastic stall, so if you’re a big person, showering would be tight. Given the hotel’s location, some update/renovation could make it very charming but in its current state, it’s just a bed for the night. If you’re working in hospitality, you’d think there’d be effort to be welcoming and friendly. Not a repeat for me, especially at this price point.
