    This is a cozy older motel. It is very clean and comfortable. No extras, but well priced for what you get. The reception was friendly and easy, parking is good and location is great.

    The hallways could use a bit of freshening up, there is a distinct aroma of OLD. This does not carry on anywhere else in the building.

    This place has recently been updated, giving you fresh and modern rooms that have everything you need like air conditioning, a microwave, and a TV with many channels to watch. 📺 Also, each room comes with its own private bathroom, which is a great bonus. Plus, the location is convenient since it's right next to the ferry terminal and near the harbor.

    the king studio that we stayed in was modern and newly remodelled. the location of the hotel was very central, near a grocery store and several restaurants and a forest in the background. bakery cobs located 1 km away was a nice surprise.
