Upon arrival at this motel, the man at front desk was very quick to take my payment, when we went to our room, the heat said on maxed out at 90° and actual temp was 56° ( FREEZING) I went and told him, he said it’s cold outside…. I asked for a refund so I could go to a heated motel, he told me to contact expedia to call him, they did, and he refused a refund.. the room was also not very pleasant.. very run down. 10/10 do not recommend

IT was overall a good overnight stay--clean,quiet,affordable.Only criticism is the need of better door security,ie.,better door locks. Management was very personable and friendly.They stated some upgrades were being planned for the future.This location has good possibilities.

This is the second stay here, thought we would give it a second chance, but this stay was worse than the first. And this is an inexpensive hotel. There was an old heater in the room, the kind you plug into the wall because the baseboards did not work and the windows are old and leaking cold air. This property is great if you are catching the Ferry or getting off the Ferry. Do not have high expectation for this location. You get what you pay for.
