The staff was very friendly and helpful. We wanted to charge our EV overnight. While they only have a regular 110V outlet, they made it easy for me to park next to the outlet and charge overnight.

The location was perfect. The check in was seamless. Room 36 is a corner room with fantastic views. Best in the harbor we thought. Sadie at the bar was a joy. They have complimentary cookies and potato chips. We loved our stay here.

The hotel has a stellar location overlooking Friday Harbor and the ferries. It was impeccably clean and had nice touches such as San Juan Roasters coffee pourover, fireplaces, and robes in the rooms. It is the perfect place for a weekend getaway!
