Property was very clean, very well located to restaurants and dockside. Staff was really nice. The one thing is, it's kind of an old building so there's no ventilation or air conditioning, but the balcony door is open enough to provide some air in the room has a fan. I know historically there has been no need for air conditioning, but these days there is
