Harbour View Inn

Harbour View Inn

8/10 Good
"The rooms are cozy and comfortable. The view of the courtyard is beautiful with all the different flowers in bloom. The continental breakfast is a great bonus with fresh baked goods offered. The staff are welcoming and very helpful. The walls of our room felt a little on the thin side because we could hear the couple next door talking on and off throughout the night. All in all, it was a good stay."
