Inn By The Harbor

Inn By The Harbor

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent Stay. We were pleasantly surprised with our stay here. The room was spotless and well-maintained, with a very comfortable bed and surprisingly quiet atmosphere for being near the freeway. The staff was incredibly friendly and made check-in a breeze. We really appreciated the complimentary breakfast in the morning and happy hour in the evening. The Wi-Fi was reasonable fast and reliable, which made catching up on emails and news convenient. The waterfront is within easy walking distance and they don’t charge extra for parking. We’ll definitely be staying here again on our next road trip!"
