Clean and well kept. Older and slightly dated, but still well cared for. Quiet despite being on a busy street. Staff was kind and considerate. Service was prompt. Parking was ample and free, which is a rarity. I will certainly keep this property in mind if/when I'm in the area again.

I would choose Marine Inn again. I had a nice comfortable stay. The room was clean when I walked in and it was serviced the two days that I was there. My check in and out was smooth. It was nice to have parking area. Thank you
