acceptable stay.

convenient locationhelpful receptionistpoor soundproofingloud doors
the location was super convenient, close to the bus stop and the marina! the receptionist was also very helpful, offering great tips. i really appreciated being able to leave my luggage after check-out while waiting for my late evening bus.
the soundproofing in the rooms was not great, and i could hear everything from the neighboring rooms! doors also seemed to bang loudly, quite disruptive. sleeping was difficult.

Central Location and Friendly Service

central locationhelpful staffclean roompoor soundproofing
The hotel has a central location within walking distance of the old town. The staff members were friendly and helpful with directions. I liked that I could store my luggage before check-in. The hotel provided a clean room with necessary amenities.
The sound proofing in the room was inadequate. I could hear noises from other rooms and the hallway clearly. It made relaxing difficult.
