Nice place
Pros:

This hotel is near (driving distance) the Cannery area.

Rooms: Average room. Double beds are comfy. We had a room with a balcony facing the road. Kind of loud with the door open. The room provides a mini fridge and microwave.

Bathroom is decent. Water pressure is good and temp is good. Nothing really to report on the room.

Bar: OMG $75 for a Double Gin and Tonic and a Manhattan. Bartender made double off all ingredients vs just a double on the alcohol. That is outrageous. Clearly bartender doesn’t understand what a double means. It was quite watered down. Very disappointing and ridiculous pricing!!
