Ernie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean, quiet & great location!

Friendly, fast and efficient check in! The front desk staff was so friendly, informative and helpful. Our room was clean, bed comfortable and location perfect to walk downtown on the marina to eat, drink & enjoy. Parking is a bit tight, busy area with metered parking, but we found a spot easy & it’s not pricey. Only metered until 5pm & we checked out in the morning before having to pay again. Someone parked behind us had a parking ticket, and it was only $10. Parking is free on nearby (steep hill) side streets.
