Not a pleasant stay...
Pros:

Nice location along the marina. Room was clean.

Cons:

The lock for the room would frequently malfunction so I had to fiddle with it to get it to lock properly. The mini fridge was not cleaned out so I had to deal with the previous tenant's food left in fridge. Restaurant staff were apparently expected to deal with these hotel issues while serving food on a buzy night. The room was extremely noisy as the restaurant/bar did not close until 9. Bed was uncomfortable so it I did not get much sleep. I left ASAP in the morning. Would not recommend.

Fun, comfortable hotel right at the marina. Easy walk into town and close to State Park.
Pros:

Nice update of an older property. Bed was very comfortable. Appreciate the amenities and extra sheet for the pup. And also appreciate the free tickets to local Crab Races the week I was there.

Cons:

The shower did not get hot. Management was responsive and unable to fix it over the weekend so provided a reasonable discount. Mistakes and issues happen and they were handed graciously and effectively.
