Don’t recommend

Receptionist was a very friendly and helpful. Room was very small. No hotel parking so we were able through hotel to pay for street parking.there were gnats on shower ceiling. There was only shower gel and a small hand soap. The best part of stay was there was a tea kettle and plenty of tea. The harbor, shopping and restaurants are approximately 15 minute walk.
