The INN at Gig Harbor

The INN at Gig Harbor

10/10 Excellent
"The front staff was very welcoming and easy to check in with. The room was clean. The bed comfy. The breakfast could have had more fresh fruit, as a suggestion. I would have liked a Netflix option on the TV as well. Other than that, it was a great stay."
