Verified review

8/10 Very good

My expectations were low, after reading many other reviews, so I was pleasantly surprised. Our room was nicely furnished, with vintage/antique feeling furniture. Nice small bathroom. Overlooked the hills behind the hotel... a nice distant view. We arrived in the morning, and the front desk woman said we could leave our bags until checkin, and would text us if we could get an early checkin. She did text us around 1 pm that we could check in, but we were busy so didn't come back until normal checkin time. After checkout, we again left our bags in the lobby (with many others) until our afternoon ferry. I liked the building and front porch. My only complaint is that there was no coffee anywhere, either in the lobby or in our room. Otherwise, a short and sweet stay. The hotel was closer to the waterfront than I expected. It is toward the end of town, as you approach the Casino, and a short walk up a steep street. As long as you are comfortable walking, it's quick access to anything along the waterfront. Pulling our wheel suitcases was no problem for us.

4/10 Fair

Hi, Very disappointed with the upkeep of the hotel lobby. The entrance lobby carpet was quite worn and it smells terrible, it’s musty . The carpet should be replaced. It’s not a good first impression when the lobby smells. The room has a small fridge, but no complementary water nor coffee maker. The room I stay in is relatively clean.
