Deluxe 1 bedroom suite with well-equipped kitchen was fabulous! Clean, quiet with view of the bay. Wish we had stayed longer than just the 1 night. I would definitely book a family stay there again.

Somewhat dated but the room was clean and pleasant. The bathroom had a tiny sink and only a shower stall. Otherwise, the proximity to the bay is a big plus and for a few nights stay, it was great.

The Pleasant Inn is a clean, centrally located, and no-frills "retro" and family-owned motel that is walkable to dozens of shops, restaurants, and other amenities. Due to its steep hilly location, guests with disabilities will have a difficult time getting around town, other than certain nearby stores and dining facing the bay that are on flat ground.

A pleasant inn indeed! Room was a good size for 2 adults and a dog with a well-appointed kitchenette. Bed was comfortable and the room also had a fan. Great location walking distance to the main street but far away enough that it was peaceful and quiet. Parking was convenient as well. Only small issue was the bathroom sink was a little finnicky but totally fine once we got used to it
