This place is in such an awesome location, and perfect for a large group. For us it worked out great because we had several teenagers in our group, and they loved all having their own bedroom. The place could definitely use some upgrades such as nice, sturdy furniture, and darkening curtains and blinds to keep the light out. When you walk in you don't get that "WOW" factor like you do with some places, but of course the price is good and for the accommodations it provides in such a great part of the city you can overlook those things. There were working AC units in all the bedrooms except 2. It is also so great to have the lockbox check-in, so we didn't have to stress when our ferry was delayed and we had to arrive much later than expected. Also when we had an issue with our keys, Houseloft answered the phone right away and provided a quick solution which was much appreciated. Overall a good stay for a few days in an unbeatable location.
