I just had a great stay at the Prince Arthur! Is the hotel older? Yes but it has tons of character. Are there odd people hanging around outside? Yes, but security is there and I was never bothered by any of them. The staff were friendly and greeted myself and my dog like long lost friends. The waterfront area across from the hotel is beautiful and very walkable. The room was nice, clean and the bed was very comfortable. All in all, a great stay.

Waterfront view was a plus-but the first person I met at the front desk (Marcie) was rude and not helpful-even the next day when I asked about a coffee shop close by-she said there was nothing yet I found a lovely place 2 blocks away. The construction didn’t help but that’s not their fault.

We are grateful to the restaurant staff for their kindness when we came in, tired and hungry, ten minutes before their closing time. They made us feel welcome and were friendly and cheerful. Thank you!

There is so much history here. Rooms were updated, spacious and clean. Some street construction going on, so be creative when you get close. We walked around outside in the evening, down to the marina, skate park and park. Lots of people around of all types, but felt safe. Good lemonade and ice cream. We paid more for the harbor view, and it was worth it. Loved the sunrise over the sleeping giant.
