The property was clean and pretty much what you would expect. It was close to the ferry which we were going to take to the island where we were booked for whale watching the next day. Only draw back is there are no close ammenities to eat, buy grocery, etc, so take what you need in food, etc.

Found the bed very noisy. Very small room. Had no shampoo or soap in shower. Arrived at 8 pm and left at 8:45 the next day. We saw no one. Breakfast was very limited. Toast and cereal. Cooked and cleaned ourselves. It was very quite there.

The property is not kept up well. We had “family” room. It was the basement, it smelled gross musty, damp stink. Beds were a wore out futon and a crappy double bed that was not Comfortable. We will not go back and we would not recommend this to anyone.

We checked in the room, and checked out of the room. There were cobwebs on the ceiling and behind the door. The baseboard heaters were rusty and full of dust. There were plastic wrappers under the bed and a white substance on the bedside table. The windowsills were full of black dirt (or mold). A picnic table outside was literally falling apart. The lady at the reception desk was very understanding and refunded our money.
