We were there for 3 nights and our room was never cleaned. We even asked for our room to be cleaned just to get fresh towels. I ended up having to go down to the front desk at 11:30 pm to ask for fresh towels.

Nice place to stay and fog friendly

Nicely renovated hotel. Clean, safe and good beds and bedding. Only complaint is very thin walls. Between. The people above us and the couple next to us fighting, it was a lot. Would have been better if the tv worked but it could not connect to the network. Dog friendly 🙂

Very enjoyable

Outside is beautiful. Inside a little dated. You can tell it’s a somewhat renovated old hotel. Clean, and very friendly staff. Super close to the free trolley, great coffee shop close by.
