Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
There was no phone in room and no staff from midnight to morning in case of emergency. By the time we realized we didn't have any washcloths, the office was closed
The staff was very helpful and we we quickly changed to another room when able. We were very tired and wanted to rest after walking the bridge. We were given a room that had a functioning TV.
The people we saw at the front desk were nice and helpful. The people who spoke to me on the phone were very nasty! The lication was handy for taking the ferry. That was our purpose. This is a rather old motel with nothing special sbout it. Really quite expensive for what it is.
Hotel was clean had a refrigerator,
beds was confortable, friendly and helpful staff.

Adequate
Generally clean. (Mould in bathroom.) Bare bones dorm-style particleboard furniture and plain decor. We think this was a handicap room, as sink and toilet were both very low to ground, but no grab bars were on the bathroom walls. (?) The sink was plumbed backwards. So it served the purpose, but would not stay here again if other options were available.
A little outdated room , but comfortable and clean , the heather ac works but it honestly needs to be upgraded as well as the toilet , nice place , but as a fellow traveler you should know this is your bare , basic hotel , yet very clean and friendly staff .
When we got to the room the lights didn’t work. Room service came and the lights were unplugged under the bed and behind the headboard. Turned on tv and couldn’t chance channels. Called room service they came back. Took remote held it a foot from tv and said battery’s must be weak and left.
