We realized we do not like shared bathrooms and it was tough not having any running water in the room. Even a small sink woulf be great!

Very cute and the decorating, facilities, equipment were very nice. We were fortunate enough to have the shared bathroom to ourselves during a covid peak, so that was nice as well (we visited during the week in autumn). Right in the heart of everything in Friday Harbor. We would stay here again.
