Checked in 1.5 hours early and they charged an early check in fee. The room was ready so don’t see the point. No other hotel has ever charged a fee. Money grab.

There's not much around but it's close to grocery stores which is great. If you're planning to go up island but not too far from the ferries, this would be a great place to stay in. Check in and check out was smooth, they have cable tv (but if you're out most of the day, doesn't really matter). Would recommend.
