This is the second stay here, thought we would give it a second chance, but this stay was worse than the first. And this is an inexpensive hotel.
There was an old heater in the room, the kind you plug into the wall because the baseboards did not work and the windows are old and leaking cold air.
This property is great if you are catching the Ferry or getting off the Ferry. Do not have high expectation for this location. You get what you pay for.

When we arrived the first thing we noticed was the smell in the room and the stay went downhill from there. Went to close the door after airing out the room for an hour to have the knob fall out into my hand. Then went to take a shower but the shower knob was broken off. Tried to turn on a light for only one side to work. Tv was extremely small had to move a chair to be able to see it. Pillows extremely uncomfortable. Only good comment is the bed was nice and hard and the fridge had a freezer.

It was all that was available. It was cheap, but i did expect a clean bed, not much else fir the price. The bed had grit in it like undesolved laundry detergent, you could feel it but couldn't see it against the white sheets. AC unit was significantly too small for the room.

We asked to look at the room we were discussed. On the way to the room there were dog beds and food outside along with a speaker hanging from a post blaring music. The room looked like something from a horror movie, couldn’t even bring myself to look at the bathroom.

We made it work for one night after getting off the ferry and needing a place to sleep. But the property was run-down, the furniture was old and beat up, and there were upholstered indoor chairs sitting on the porch. Basically tacky. And no coffee at all, beds were hard as a rock, sheet had a 4-inch tear in it. I would not go back.
