LYNNYoung couple - Avg. price/night: $118.267.7Scored 7.7GoodRated good· 425 reviewsThis is a 4b2b student dormitory suite, the price is not high based on the average price per bedroom, so it is good for multiple people, however, we are two people.The building is relatively modern, clean, and there is a parking space at the door.Quite and safe. The hallway is hot.liqiuFamily with young children
- Avg. price/night: $141.077.9Scored 7.9GoodRated good· 506 reviewsBudget stay with great location. Rooms were passable but a bit warm (was hard to cool them down at night). Recommend getting a room on any floor but the basement (windows do not open down there) and also facing the courtyard vs the road (noisy).West Coast NickFamily with young children

DavidYoung couple - Avg. price/night: $212.917.7Scored 7.7GoodRated good· 2,216 reviewsI loved the location, I'm actually surprised how cheap it was for a hotel downtown. It's close to everything. Good restaurants near by, the ferry is 5 minutes away by car (could definitely walk). The neighborhood felt safe. Happy that the breakfast were hot with a bit of change every day. I saw the pool but didn't get to go since it was a LOT of kids their (I went in the morning), so I suggest going closer to the closing time if you want to relax. And btw is looks BETTER than the pictures.

I know it’s summertime so it’s always a little more expensive but it would be nice if it was a little cheaper.RRobinGroup
