My stay at the Harbourview Inn was good, highlighted by the friendly staff and spacious rooms. The location was quiet yet conveniently close to attractions, making it easy to explore the area. However, the view from my room was somewhat hindered by nearby construction, which was a letdown. Overall, it was a lovely experience, but I would have preferred a room without such obstructed views.
