Very basic and dated hotel. Sufficient for sleeping before fishing or cruise activities. 2 doors down from good restaurant. No USB outlets in room…would be a great idea to switch out lamps with ones that have USB ports.

This is an older hotel that has been rennovated and is in very good shape. I would definitely stay here again as it is more reasonably priced than most other options. A free hot breakfast is a plus and staff very helpful. Nothing stands out as to anything we didnt like but I would have liked to turn down the temperature at night. We were able to open windows to let cool air in before bedtime and that helped.

No tv service, no lounge or restaurant as stated on the internet. No coffee maker. Remove the plug in air fresheners, it is awful for people with allergies and just not healthy at all.
