Huntingdon Hotel and Suites
Staff are so friendly and helpful. The hotel is older of course but it is kept up very nicely. The free breakfast buffet is a great amenity. You can sit in a nice room overlooking the garden and harbour. I will say there is lots of construction outside right now but still beautiful.
