"I loved my queen room. It was very neat and pleasant. The staff were always available and had great customer service. They were warm and welcoming. Breakfast was amazing. It was more than I could have expected. The AC kept the room at a nice comfortable temperature. I loved the pool, hot tub, and the indoor and outdoor sitting areas. I also love that the Inn by the Harbor was very close to all of the main venues and beach. I would stay there again. :)"
