Great location near the Marina and the beach. Easy walk to State Street with all of the action, and easy walk to the beach. Tucked into a neighborhood, has a bed and breakfast feel. We went on Saturday 7/12 and the young man at the front desk was VERY hospitable and welcoming. Gave great restaurant recommendations which were spot on. There was free onsite parking which we were able to use. Our room had a balcony and fireplace. Everything was perfect.
