The room was a little dated. It smelled musty but the house keeping staff did a great job cleaning. The window in the room was left slightly open probably to combat the smell. If you're looking for a high end hotel this is not the place but if you're looking for a clean room with a great breakfast this might be for you.

This was a convenient stay after the ferry. The room was clean, but mattress and pillows needed updating. The floors are pretty uneven and the room was a little crowded. It’s close to a few places to eat and right on the water. In the summer, it would be an easy walk to Safeway or really anywhere in town. We would stay here again.

Stinky and could use a little love.

Great location but the room was not so great. Wouldn’t take much to make sure the rooms had a little love like re-caulking the tub and sink. Also, the room smelt pretty bad…

The staff was really friendly. The breakfast was good enough quality, but very plentiful: eggs, pancakes, sausage patties & links, delicious bacon, cereal options and juice, coffee, tea, water, hot chocolate, milk… really it was a great start to the day. The room shows its age a bit, but it’s very cozy. Great TV options for downtime. The beds are on the soft side, but not too bad for a couple nights. The bathroom vent is underpowered, but the windows open in the room to let in fresh air. Snow is a constant in winter, but the parking area is cleared as well and as often as it can be. Snow piles up along the building and you need to heed the signs to park 6 ft away—or risk serious damage from snow falling off the roof. The fitness room is open until 10 pm and adequately furnished with cable, free weights, a bench, treadmill and mirrors. Decent experience at a great rate.
