We stayed in the one of the rooms facing the bay with a balcony. The view was wonderful - morning coffee on the balcony was special. The room itself was spotless and well appointed for our stay - a couple. Our interactions with staff were always professional and friendly. We also enjoyed a wonderful dinner on the deck as well as breakfast on one morning. We would certainly recommend staying at this location.

Pleasantly surprised as we booked the small room type. Room was a bigger than I was expecting. Loved all the furnishings and very comfortable bed. The shower was small but functional. Lovely bathroom. Staff were all very friendly and helpful too. Would definitely stay again.

Very nice. We were in the newer section in the back - the space worked for us. Overall the hotel is fine - we ate dinner there once. Sat on the porch which was a little cold - they have plastic curtains to close it off (to a degree) and radiant heaters. Seems like they were a bit light on staffing - saw only 2 waitstaff - so they had a hard time keeping up. We were there at the end of the season (mid April) so I need to cut them some slack. Russell is nice and peaceful, but quite small. Stayed for 3 nights which was probably one night too long.

The room was lovely. We had a nice view of the ocean. The water pressure in the shower was excellent. The air conditioning worked really well. The hotel is perfectly situated on the water with many local restaurants nearby. It's a nice, quiet place to have a break.
