Harbourview Inn, SureStay Collection by Best Western

8/10 Good
"We liked our room and hotel location. The floor carpet throughout the staircase & hallways looked very dirty—screaming for a good wash! Breakfast was rather disorganized. Often running out of juice, cups, etc—the staff member said they had ran out of them. It occurred every morning during our three day stay."

"Friendly, helpful reception. Clean room for most part. Box-spring mattress damaged in one visible corner, not conducive to reliable maintenance. Other visible damage also. Outside of building needs maintenance as well. No coffee/tea provided. Functional mini fridge with small freezer were convenient, plus small microwave oven. Price I paid was more than price I was quoted by Expedia. Somewhat overpriced anyway for overall quality."
