The staff was nice but the room was very dirty…hairs in the sheets, looked like the bed was not cleaned between guests…bathroom hair and floss on floor …there was 1 towel in bathroom, the staff did bring towels right away. Had to walk down 3 flights of stairs with luggage since elevators were not working The area around the hotel is seedy…lots of homeless…the waterfront which is 10-15 min walk is nice near the ferry. I would not call this a boutique hotel…no food service at the hotel restaurant, maybe cause it was a Sunday? lol would find somewhere else to stay

We booked the king room with a harbor view. The room, on the top floor, had a beam ceiling with brick walls, which we appreciated as we enjoy historical inns. The picture window was a plus. The complimentary continental breakfast was plentiful and changed each morning. Staff members were attentive.

There is nothing unique about this property; the lobby is dark and depressing, the rooms are small, and the receptionist said she would make a reservation for the best fish place in town but didn't follow through.

Very vintage. Rooms were clean and bed very comfortable. One tiny elevator for a lot of rooms and didn’t really feel secure outside hotel at night. You have to park along street or in remote parking…
