We loved the nautical theme of the place both inside and out. Our room was great and the breakfast room was one of the best we've seen. It was easy to find the hotel when we left the ferry.

Disliked: Amenities
Staff were excellent, room was perfectly fine, clean. However the windows were not so nice.
Very comfortable beds for a restful sleep. Plenty of fresh towels for the whole family. Great continental options for breakfast. Although a slightly older establishment, the staff and owners work diligently to keep it clean. We had a very pleasant stay.
Boil water advisory for city made for an uncomfortable stay.
Hotel is very rundown and dated. Very comfortable beds and staff was friendly and helpful.
Great location for ferry and good staff Breakfast was fabulous

Lots of history in this place.
Manager (evening staff) was very kind and helpful. The building has seen a lot of action over the years yet our room was clean and the beds were comfortable.

Clean, quiet room. Mattress was comfortable. Breakfast was typical hotel breakfast but adequate.
Cute decor. Windows were fogged and dirty. Boil water advisory. Elevator was sketchy (jerky). Beds were comfortable. Ok place if you are catching the ferry.

Good location with many amenities being walking distance. Property is aged, but in reasonable condition. Safe and quiet location. Price seems to be on par with larger and cleaner hotels with modern amenities
