A simple but perfectly suitable room for the price. There was initially a problem with them not finding our reservation, but they still roomed us and were able to resolve the issue within the hour. Also, our room didn't have soap when we arrived, but they promptly brought some to us when we asked. A fantastic location right near the dock too. Overall, very happy with our stay and would come back!
