Pros: The only reason I chose this hotel was because it is right on the waterfront.
Cons: The place is a dump. They apparently spent nothing on maintenance and upkeep, but they charge a premium for location. Save your money and go somewhere else. Someday in the not too distant future there will be a fine hotel on that site.
Pros: The location is wonderful. We could see the beach and Stearns warf from our room. It is a small older but charming motel. There is no air conditioning but the fans were sufficient.
Pros: Close to the wharf and the beaches. Scenery was fantastic.
Cons: No air conditioning. Room very hot, even for October. Complimentary breakfast not served.
Pros: Location excellent.
Cons: No air conditioning, no hair dryer and no coffee maker. Price was a lot and should have these little things included.
Pros: The room was beautiful, tile floors Spanish accents on the wall fantastic view of the pier in the beach from out the door great staff wonderful place.We are already booked for the 4th of July at this Hotel!
