“The location is undeniably convenient, near buses, the ferry, and the Amtrak station, making it ideal for those prioritizing accessibility; however, be aware that the surrounding area's vibrancy diminishes after dark. While the rooms offer basic comfort, some guests have reported cleanliness and maintenance issues that potential visitors should consider when booking.”
