Wonderful local stay in the heart of the inner harbor area with great access to downtown and core bus routes. Our room was clean and perfectly set up for longer stays with a small kitchenette and a convenient layout with plenty of space to move around with a walker.

This is such a fantastic secluded location with gorgeous little forrest hikes nearby, spectacular ocean views too and comfortable unit. There is ongoing construction close by which disturbed the tranquility somewhat, but should be done soon.
