Great for a one night stay over but would work well for a longer stay.
Pros:

Great location. Easy to get to from ferry terminal. Easy walk to bars restaurants. Motel had a great atmosphere about, even when turning up in the dark. Heat was also on, so cozy for a good size room.

Cons:

Nothing really to fault. I did try to flood bathroom as shower head was pointing out towards bathroom door but that was an operator issue!
