My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms were comfortable, the overall condition of the property was quite run-down. The service was friendly and accommodating, but the dining experience was lacking due to long waiting times. The location was convenient for accessing the ferry terminal, but the neighborhood felt a bit sketchy.

The hotel is conveniently close to the ferry terminal, making early morning departures easy. However, some rooms were a bit dated with peeling paint. The staff was accommodating and professional, although certain services may come with charges. The location is excellent, just a few blocks from downtown, despite upcoming renovations. Dining options were tasty, but some facilities needed attention.
