They have done a nice job of interior renos and nice extras like bath robes and two outside common patio tables. Easy to find on hwy 1 and walking distance to a river walkway and parks. Front desk staff very helpful. Floor above a bit creaky with heavy walkers but quiet room overall.

Disliked: Amenities
The front desk staff was very welcoming and accommodating, and checked to be sure we were holy with the room soon after checking in. The room was clean and comfortable, but the bed was very noisy. The mattress cover made noise every time my husband or I moved, even the slightest. Made it very difficult to stay asleep. Otherwise a pleasant stay!
