adequate stay

central location friendly service hardwood floor old coffee maker terrible toiletries parking concern
i booked a weekend getaway. the hotel is very centrally located close to the harbour. service was friendly, and i got a nice room. rooms were clean with hardwood floors.
the old coffee maker was disappointing. the toiletries in the bathroom were terrible. parking is the worst, and i shouldn't be concerned about it while paying to stay.

FANTASTIC Harbour Views

panoramic view comfy bed pet openness
I had a GREAT big room. It even had a panoramic view of the bay. The comfy bed was just AMAZING. I slept like a log! I also appreciated the openness to having pets.
The parking IS the worst. You should not worry about parking when you pay to stay somewhere.
