Stayed 2 nights at end of Aug/beginning of Sept 2024 (Labor Day weekend). Hotel is in great location and is nicer than I expected, with a pleasant lobby & balconies from 2nd & 3rd floors looking over the lobby. Be sure to ask for a room above the ground level. We were given a room right next to the lobby. We could hear all the comings & goings at the entrance. Our room was also very hot despite the heat being off. There was an air conditioner but it was coated in dust so we didn’t want to turn it on. We didn’t want to open the window because our room was right next to the sidewalk, with people passing by (not noisy but too close). The staff said they’d pass on the temperature & AC issues but didn’t offer any solution while we were there (such as vacuuming the AC?!).
The hotel is in a very scenic & convenient spot at the far end of town near the Sealife Center, with easy walk to restaurants, shops, etc. There’s a buffet breakfast but it’s $18 and we preferred the nearby cafes. The hotel offers a pick-up service from the train station, which was very helpful. I recommend this place but try to avoid a room on the ground floor.
