8/10 Very good

Great location, not so great coffee.
A beautiful hotel and a great location. The service was excellent. Now the negatives - coffee totally inadequate, cheap Motel 6 in room quality coffee. Restaurant didn't open until 8am, only other coffee available is at Starbucks two blocks away and they do not open until 7am. So if you rise early and like coffee "beware". Second negative is the room is extremely small and the bathroom as well. I mean really small, as I walked the hallways and glanced at the rooms being cleaned they all looked small. Overall we enjoyed out stay at the Island House.

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel but do not eat there
The rooms were small but clean and ample. The lobby is nice, as was the porch. It is an easy, short walk into town. Staff was great. As for the onsite restaurants: Do not do breakfast at the restaurat and for a bbq restaurant, the worst meal at the Ice House was the bbq! There are better, less expensive restaurants.
