Great location and views

The people there were very nice. The views of the water were beautiful and you could see the lighthouse which was cool. The location was amazing. The ice machine was great a d we liked that the room came with a fridge and microwave. The negatives: The elevator was very slow and hot. Our sheets had a stain on them The shower went from hot to cold a lot but the water pressure was good. The bed was very hard and pillows very soft.

On arrival, expected available parking. There was none as golf carts had taken extra spaces as free parking. Desk clerk had no idea what to tell us and one other person who also couldn't find parking. Office is small, cluttered, ancient looking. Room key (old fashioned kind) wouldn't work. Had to get clerk to show us how to hold and work the knob to get keys to work. Room was clean, bathroom had been updated and was fine. Water pressure was great. Beds were very comfortable and clean. But, we were told (by sign) AC had to be set at 66 and door was not to be left open. We are seniors, we were freezing! We thought, ok, just a few degrees higher would be ok. Nope, they meant 66!! When we returned from dinner, floor throughout was wet. We returned AC to 66 and used the towels to dry the floor. No one in office after about 9 pm. Yes, our fault but we had to spend time in room with sweaters on or under the bedcovers. Parking did become available as restaurants closed and diners left. Hotel is in excellent location near ferry terminal and easy walking distance to Village shops/restaurants. We liked room location on end first floor close to our car. Both desk clerks were friendly and very helpful (as much as possible). Hate to say, but overall we probably wouldn't stay here again.

I like the pet friendly grassy area in back behind elevator area in side yard, with baggie-poo stand (though I always bring my own) and a trash bin handy. Staff very nice and friendly. Beds and mattresses excellent. My room key was a bit rusty and troublesome, but I worked everytime once I got used to it. All good. Will recommend it.

Great place to stay

The a/c in this room was not nearly as good as the last room we booked. Everything else was great, and I would still recommend! Walkable! Internet access good. Nice view and seating outside the rooms.

Amazing vacation

Our stay was absolutely amazing!!! Although it didn’t start out great as we got up the very first morning of our stay to a flat tire! But people came from everywhere to offer help. One of the employees even called himself to where we were told to get our tire fixed. Everyone was amazing and friendly and so very willing to help. The hotel was beautiful perfect location and had everything you may need. Would without a doubt stay there again!!!!!! Loved it!!!!

The rooms were freshly painted and updated however there was rust flaking from the bathtub which should have been replaced with the updates and the room was crowded with the table and chairs in the room. Overall, I would stay here again if only staying for a day or 2. Anything more than that I would need something bigger. Pool was fantastic. Parking was rough with all the golf carts parking there for dinner at smacNally’s.
