The room was very run down and in need of repairs. There was only a tub with a handheld shower head (not advertised), and the hot water went in and out. The bath towels were tiny. The lighting in the room was fluorescent and there was no TV (not a big deal, but unexpected). The blinds were broken and there were spiders and webs everywhere. It was nice and quiet, however. For the price of the room, it should not feel like a hostel.

I paid like $250 for the night which was $100 too much. I wouldn't stay again. Check-in was just an envelope addressed to me left outside with a card key inside, otherwise completely unattended. The fireplace didn't work. It was loud, cold. The only redeeming quality is the location on Main Street.

Great location for downtown access and coastal access. Hotel was unique but in need of some renovation and repairs. The bed was terrible and must be updated.
