Great location. Lots of shops and restaurants in walking distance. Close to the water with a park across the street. Friendly staff. Having said all of those pluses, I have to say the hotel is old and in dire need of a face-lift. Carpets are old and worn. Elevator has seen better days and the air conditioning barely worked in the lobby and hallways. Mercifully it worked well in the room.

Absolutely disgusting. Fire code violations everywhere. MOLD in our room. The whole place smelled like a health hazard. The furniture in room and the comforter were all stained. It was so bad we actually just left our bags there while we went to the concert we were in town for, and then after the event we retrieved our bags and checked out. We’d rather drive 1.5 hours back home than even touch that bed or any other surfaces in that place. I’ve stayed at motels in questionable areas that were cleaner and functionally safer than this place. It is NOT charming or a boutique hotel. This is a dump.

Elevator was out of service and had to walk up to 4th floor. Not very clean. Dead roach on the floor was the topper.

The location is amazing but behind an old structure, it’s extremely noisy and poorly maintained. Parking instruction are poor.
