Great location and availability at an even better price. Recently updated. Desk lady was very nice. Parking was a bit of a challenge as my truck is so big. Certainly not like the other guestā€™s vehicles. Extremely clean but the amenities were a bit disappointing. My only real beef was the bed. It was so hard I could barely sleep and my body is still sore. Maybe new industrial equipment.

Great little motel - 2 min walk to the harbor. -Walking distance to restaurants and vintage shops. -Great hospitality from staff. -My room had a nice partial view of the rock and water. Suggestions for a better unobstructed view 1) trim the city trees for a better view. 2) remove the window slats. Thanks!
