The rooms are updated with newer flooring, art, furniture and bathroom fixtures. We had the room with kitchenette and I highly recommend it due to the extra window with nice view, and much larger room size. The kitchen appliances were new, clean and worked perfectly.

Stay before my fishing trip
Nice place right next to H&M Landing, so really convenient for those going on a fishing trip. Great food within walking distance for great seafood and a nice brewery for some libations. Room was comfortable and clean, bed was good. It’s an older hotel but the keep it up and parking is easy.

Nice Weekend on the Harbor
Clean room. Cute decor. They had an actual fridge in the room... bonus points for that! Close to many places to eat and a nice walkable area at the harbor. But, our view room had a a view of the parking lot with a sliver of a view of the harbor and that was a bummer. It was a great location and a good price considering that! I would recommend this place for sure... and the bar across the street was another bonus since most places on the harbor closed early.
