We have stayed here many times over the years. This time was awful! It is under construction so it is dirty and noisy. We have always had a nice room overlooking the lighthouse. This time they put us in a room that no one should ever have to stay in. {room 105} We asked to be moved and ended up in another room that was as bad. {room 211} We've never stayed in these rooms and no one should ever have to stay in them! There were holes in the bathroom when all the wall fixtures had been removed. The bathroom was dirty! Looked like white dust everywhere. The bathroom was rusty and grimy. It was gross to use and did not use the shower. I thought the bed, although the sheets were thin, looked clean. When I woke up the sheets and mattress cover had pulled off and exposed nasty stains that I had been sleeping on. Ick, This is all so sad because we have stayed here many times and it will probably be very nice when they are done but the owners should know that they are insulting their customers with staying open and assigning these horrible rooms during the construction.

Best part is the location. It's right near the Lighthouse, pier, and pier village. The staff was friendly. We met a cleaning lady one day and she was very nice. The hotel is old, and needs sprucing up, which they are doing now. I'm sure when it's done, it will be beautiful again. They have breakfast, but I would plan to find food somewhere else. Just muffins and waffles. The first day, the waffle batter was so thin, the waffle was horrible. We grabbed a couple of muffins and took them to our room to warm in the microwave. The next day, we had breakfast out!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
They were under construction so im sure i didn't get to see the best of it. The construction wasn't the issue, the cleanliness of my room was. There was hair on the sheets, previous visitors food in the fridge, which i don't know which previous one. Finally I stepped on a screw in my bathroom barefooted. I told the hotel staff about it and they said they would have a meeting about it with other staff to discuss what needs to be improved, obviously not the only response that should be given

Staff is friendly. It is in a great location for easy access to town. It doesn’t feel like staying in a hotel, it’s more like a home. Hardwood floors, real wood furniture, sliding doors to the outside with balconies. It’s located in a quiet neighborhood which is also nice. I look forward to seeing it when the renovation is finished.

Staff was very courteous. Hotel was under construction/remodel. “Park View” was on the opposite side of hotel. We had to checkout a day early due to sickness, and the hotel staff were very understanding and fine with us leaving early, I am not satisfied with Expedia due to the inability to speak with someone about a possible refund.
