Lovely location. Needs some updating and some seriously upgraded breakfast facilities but as the whole area is due for demolition and a laguna style modern renovation (sad to lose all the characterful buildings and restaurants) it really doesn’t matter. It is clean, basic and the staff are friendly.

Its a dated motel, but Its the only hotel at the marina. Nothing fancy, just a place to stay, and it does include a breakfast: make your own waffles, yogurt, bagles, cereal, juice, and of course coffee.

Hotel to be torn down October 2026. The door frames are crusty and falling apart. The trash chuts are frightening. It’s an old old place. Bunt out room light bulbs! Remote controls don’t work. It’s cost effective to stay but you get what pay for there.

Location is great. Staff was great. But this place missed maintenance and cleaning for at least 20 or 30 years. If I would know the condition of the room, I would NEVER stay there.

The rooms are nice. However I had noisy neighbors carrying on until after midnight. So the front desk was kind enough to move me to a quiet room. So grateful!
