Munras Inn

Munras Inn

10/10 Excellent
"We enjoyed our stay, the AC & heat worked exceptionally well & were very quiet. The room was clean & spacious. The water pressure and shower head were AMAZING! A great way to unwind after a long day of site seeing. We were on the 2nd floor of the 2nd building and I loved the high wood beam ceilings. If the price is right the next time we are in the area, we would definitely stay again!"

Can I book a fully refundable hotel close to Waterfront?
Most bookings on Expedia are refundable if canceled within 24-48 hours of arrival, though this depends on the hotel's individual cancellation policy, which you should check in your booking confirmation. If free cancellation is available, you can cancel directly through your Expedia account by going to "My Trips" and selecting your reservation. To find fully refundable hotel options, simply enter "Waterfront", set your travel dates, and use the "Fully refundable" filter under "Deals & Discounts" on the results page. Alternatively, explore deals with free cancellation options on Expedia.
