Tides Hotel

8/10 Good
"Great location with only a 2 min walk to the Main Street. The room was nice, clean and warm and the staff very friendly and helpful. My only complaint was my room was below the stairs to the second level and I could hear everyone walking up and down the stairs which interrupted my sleep. Avoid room 50 at all costs."
