Nice courteous staff accommodated late check in on short notice. Thank you Wade for waiting till I arrived after a long drive.
Rooms and washroom were nice and clean, decent small cozy room. The refrigerator could have used a cleaning though or maybe some baking soda. I noticed a pungent smell as soon as I opened the freezer and refrigerator door. Good thing I carry Lysol with me lol, cleaned it before keeping my food. Overall decent experience and thank you again for waiting up.

Spent two evenings here over the winter and returned just last weekend. Both stays were excellent. The staff was friendly, rooms clean and comfortable. We really enjoy the location; walking distance to local shops, food and the waterfront. Will definitely be back again.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. I only mark it down 1 star because our room was on the 2nd floor and there is no elevator.

Our stay in July was terrific. Loved the receptionist, Riley, that assisted us. Our rooms were clean and comfortable. Also loved the location. We were secure in the fact that our gear was safe. We will be back in July, 2019!!!

This was a nice functional hotel, reminded me of a college dorm, lots of concrete block. Everything was very clean, very comfortable bed and the bathroom was recently redone. The "continental breakfast" turned out to be a full breakfast! Two eggs, meat, potato, toast and coffee. The hotel and breakfast combo is a deal that would be tough to beat!
