The room was severely neglected and dirty. I was moved into a new room which was a bit more updated, but it was still dirty, the outlets were outdated and did not charge my phone, and it was noisy. I would not recommend this hotel.

Disliked: Amenities
This place looks great in the photos, but reality is different. It wasn't bad -- probably a fair price for what you get. But, lots could be improved: $15 for overnight parking in an empty lot in November off-season did not make me feel like a welcomed customer. VERY basic/well used room furniture in a large room. Difficult to open/close curtains. Worn thin shower towels with holes in them. Clogged bath tub drain with hair in it. Dated noisy heater/AC unit in wall. Pluses: Nice harbor view and large clean refrigerator.

Everything was great, but the noise through the walls.The walls are not noise proof as I could hear the adjoining room person cough all night long. Perhaps it’s just this room as I didn’t have this problem when I stayed here before.
