Good trip.
Super-comfortable beds and linens made for great sleeping. Location is great - a few blocks uphill from the water/restaurants/shops. Breakfast was above average for breakfast-included hotels. Waffles, oatmeal, hard-boiled eggs and an assortment of breads and fruit. Wish there had been hot coffee available before 7:30 am.

Clean and quiet hotel and everything was within walking distance. We arrived early; however, they allowed us to park our car. Nice hotel, friendly staff and reasonably priced. We will stay here again.

Great value
Great location. Easy check in and friendly staff. Updated paint and decor with a comfy bed. Convenient parking. Cute lounging area. Don't try to check-in too early or you will be charged an additional $30. My only complaint is the carpet. It makes this hotel feel a bit drab and dingy. However it wasn't so bad that I wouldn't stay again. Had a great stay.
