We loved the view of the capitol and the harbor from the top floor room. The AC was out and the room was near 100 degrees both days in spite of everything we could do, so we did not sleep until well past midnight each night when it cooled down enough to be comfortable.

Good location is only real plus. Hotel is in extreme neglect, to the point it was actually comical. A/C broken, bathtub cracked and peeling, faucet dripping, cobwebs in the light fixtures, bedspread torn, swimming pool abandoned…for example.

The hotel is in desperate need of a complete renovation. Air conditioner for entire hotel out of service, shower either freezing cold or scalding hot. Planned on a three-night stay, left next morning (without a shower). Then had to chase manager to get refund.

It was okay. No a/c in the hottest part of the year and when ice and wind from the sliding door is the only thing that makes it bearable. Check in was easy but the first room lights didnt work. They switched us to smaller room and it was okay.

The air conditioning was out and there is no way to open windows as the rooms have sliding doors that open about 2 inches only. This is scheduled for renovation but honestly they should not be renting rooms in the current state.

We checked in on one of the hot summer day and the checkin staff offered us refund because they dont have AC working in rooms. The condition of the property is really poor however the staff has done their best. We just went to target and bought ourselves few fans just to be able to sit in the room. Not sure about sleeping yet.

The AC in our unit did not work, and the tub was leaking, stained, and unusable. It could be such a cute spot with some renovations! Great bones. My bed also smelled a little like pee. It was fine for a night.

No A/C - Cannot open windows more than 3 inches. No sleep = poor communication, no help offered.
