The staff at this hotel are some of the friendliest and most helpful that I’ve ever run into. The location is perfect. Offside enough for a little peace and quiet yet within walking distance to most everything. Beautiful harbor view. We had a nice big room with a somewhat noisy airconditioner. That was made up for by the fact that it was very efficient and cooled off quickly.
