Capt.'s Inn & Suites

8/10 Good
"It was what we thought it would be, it was a no frill one night stay. Of note, it was clean. There was a problem with the sink in the original bathroom but they immediately found us another room. The WiFi was spotty depending on where you were in the room. Overall it was a good overnight stay and I would recommend it to others."
