Awful

The beds were uncomfortable the rooms were old and need to be undated. They didn’t furnish the kitchenette as advertised on your site. Extremely small shower. And worst of all woke up to last night there to large roach in the bed. But the area is beautiful. But I would find somewhere else to stay.

Several times we came back to find that our designated parking spot was occupied by other cars. Also some cars took too up much space. An outlet did not work in our bathroom, so they gave me an extension cord. Managers are helpful but the owner has the place for sale so not willing to do anything for updates. Which is sad, because it's a neat place with alot of history and also perfect spot to get to the island. It has a beautiful view.

Great location and it was awesome to be on the water. Would definitely stay here again. Room was up to date unlike other reviewers comments. We stayed in #6 and it was perfect. No coffee cups for the coffee provided and no hairdryer. There is a hairdryer at the office you can ask for, so ask ahead of time since the office was closed when we needed it. Overall, it is a very nice place and would recommend.

Liked: Staff & service
It’s an older hotel. It’s built right on the water and there’s water all around you, that’s really cool. The room was relatively clean and affordable for a family of 5. We felt safe there and enjoyed that the room was nonsmoking. The towels and sheets were clean and our room was spacious. The hotel is ready for some upgrades but I think probably priced accordingly. Yes the floors are uneven but you are on a pier. My biggest complaint is that the AC was very loud and smelled musty but I was grateful it worked. The area was cool and I enjoyed the chairs outside of our room that overlooked that water. I’d stay here again if I’m the area.

Good Experience

The couple that runs the inn take pride in what they do. Kim was especially helpful, and goes out of her way to in making sure that you feel at home. The inn itself was a little run down, most of the dock was damaged and minor repairs are needed in the room (floor slants and is uneven more so in some areas) but they are clean. We brought our 9-year-old grandson who spent his time fishing from the dock. The bed was in good shape and the room was clean. But in the end, it was Kim that made us feel at home.
