Great place to stay!
My son and I very much enjoyed our stay here. We came on the Black Ball Ferry without our car. It was a very easy walk from the ferry to the hotel. We arrived at 11am hoping to have them hold our bags but they already had a room ready for us and allowed us to check in early. The staff were very friendly and our room and beds were very comfortable. It was a great location. We were able to walk to restaurants and museums. The day we checked out they held our bags so we didn't have to carry them around until our ferry left at 4. I would highly recommend this hotel and definitely stay again!
