Our room was big and it was clean. We enjoyed sitting on the deck overlooking the marina. The bed was very comfortable. The shower had double showerheads. The room had a large jetted garden tub and fireplace which would be nice to use for a future visit. The front desk staff were helpful and kind. We will be back.

Beautiful room in a cool area
Had no idea what to expect in a small town but this was better than a high priced chain!! On the waterfront with beautiful balcony on the water, roomy and anything you could need. Jacuzzi tub the size of a hot tub, double shower heads with wonderful water pressure, microwave, fridge and a much bigger than expected TV. We will definitely be back!
