We went on a cruise and this hotel was the most convenient location to our ship. It was only a 5 min walk to the port. Staff was very friendly, and check in was quick and effortless. Highly recommend for cruise travelers.

The room was spacious, comfortable and very clean. The bathroom was a great size. The Harbor House is close to lots of places even being right on the water. The parking lot and construction right in front of it makes it a bit of a challenge, but doable.
