We really only stay for convenience to our harbor. Not very many amenities.

2/10 Poor

Terrible, dirty and unsafe.
Dirty, i felt unsafe. I ended up staying one night out of the three i booked. Checked out at 11pm on the second night due people banging on walls and i could hear everything and they were being rude and just felt unsafe. This was a solo trip with my dog. Being a female i let the front desk know that i was leaving and they didnt seem to care. Being 11pm. I booked anothe hotel near by. They were wonderful. Im trying to get my pet and parking fees back and at least a partial for the 2 nights booked.

Great location but dated
The front desk associate was very nice and even let us check in early. The room was clean but the sheer curtains were torn. The bathroom leaves a lot to be desired. You can tell this is an old property that needs to be updated. The location is awesome though. Our only big complaint is that we left for the entire day and had the please make up room tag on the door and they never did make up the room. We stayed for two nights.

We had an issue with our magnetic key. After 2 days, the staff finally changed our room. The staff was very accommodating. The hotel is dated and will be torn down next year.

Harbor view
We are frequent visitor from Las Vegas and love the area!!! We made a reservation 1 month in advance with possible request for a 3 rd floor harbor view king room. They were already taken by the time we checked in so they accommodated us with a 2 nd floor room. Which was fine for just an overnight stay but we really wanted 3rd floor. It was fine in the long run at first disappointing. We say hi to Sami an amazing GM!!!! This is Mike and Kathy!! Thank you all

Stay was fine but the hotel is very old and dated. Basically like an old motel in a great location. I’m sure it is slated for demo or renovation soon with the upcoming development in the area. But it was clean.

Place is a dump!
This place is a dump! Run down and has not been updated in decades. Some of the people we saw staying there were unsavory, not sure if they rent rooms to homeless but did not feel safe.

Needs major improvements
Run-down, tired hotel in need of a major upgrade. Key cards stop working every day and need to be reset at front desk. Mattresses are extremely old and uncomfortable. Much nicer hotels at similar prices in the area

Not the same attention to detail
Unfortunately with it being an event weekend rates were inflated by over double normal cost. We missed an hour of the festival but the staff did their best to expedite. They gave us a pool and bathroom key for the wait. Was such a busy 3 days that we didnt notice until check out that under the 1st queen bed wasnt cleaned at all. A pair of flip flops , potato chip and other junk was left from the previous people. Have stayed at this location prior so was a bit disappointed in the lack of attention to properly clean it

The location of this hotel was great, very walkable to everything in the harbor. The hotel and room itself was very outdated and dirty. Our bathroom had an ant problem and overall felt dirty.
