super stay!

friendly staff great location soft sheet narrow staircase
i found really kind staff. the location was close to the docks, what a plus! the room had soft sheets and felt very tidy. although the staircase was narrow, i managed fine with my suitcase.
the bathroom could use some updates because i think the facilities looked old and worn.
