Within walking distance to EVERYTHING!!! The staff was very accommodating, the rooms were clean and a good size. The rooms were well stocked. Only an 8 minute simple stroll from the dock where the ferry is. The breakfast was satisfying enough to start our day. They had luggage storage, which was great because we arrived early and didn’t want to tote everything around town and to lunch! We will definitely stay again!

A suite costing $910 per night was extremely small, and the ocean view was barely visible. This is misleading advertising.
