Overall, the hotel was okay. Cons: No in-room safe. Our door key only worked after the 4th or 5th time even after getting new cards. It feels very much like an old motel that was given a partial renovation. The room could have been cleaner but were not filthy. Pros: Great location if going to the Channel Islands. Staff was...

While visiting a friend recently staying w/ this property, I was astonished at the un-kept conditions of this Chain hotel which repeated themselves next door at the adjoining 'Four Points', likewise. While the exterior of the bldng. was good enough, it was the corridors and some rooms which suffered obvious neglect. While walking down the carpeted hallways, there were obvious... More

This hotel has access to the harbour- wonderful view from our room balcony on the thrid floor. I highly reccomend staying on the thrid floor. Dinner at the Harbour was great - kids walked around and enjoyed the atmosphere. Morning time we went to downtown and had a wonderful breakfast and shopped all the quaint shops. Best trip in awhile... More

After checking in, this seemed to be a basic hotel with a tiny lobby and no extra services like a pool, fitness center, and hot tub. We only discovered on the second and last day,that we had privileges at the adjoining Four Points by Sheraton. We have stayed at other Holiday Inn Expresses and this location seemed lacking. I would... More

We stayed here for a couple of nights and extended by another night as we enjoyed the location very much. Our room was on the second floor, very large, with a balcony overlooking the marina.

I have come here for a research conference but can certainy recommend this hotel also for leisure travellers. My room was facing the harbor and you can experience a great sunset on the balcony if you are in the room at that our. Rooms are spacious and clean. They have a refrigerator but no safe.

Stayed here for two nights in February. Had a corner room on the 2nd floor with a wrap around balcony. Great views of the harbor. Room was large and very comfortable. Staff was very friendly.

Very good size room and excellent bathroom. All nicely appointed. Nice view of harbor. Problem: smell in room. We were actually given a second room because first room was so bad. Second room not as bad. It seems to relate to the fact the rooms have no windows to open. So the rooms get stale smell. It was the end... More

Well landscaped hotel has a good location between farm fields (and a road) on one side and the small boat harbor on the other. My room was large, with a sofa, comfortable bedding, excellent shower, good bath amenities and an unused space which apparently is for opening up the sofa bed. As promised, it had a harbor view, and even... More
