"My expectations were low, after reading many other reviews, so I was pleasantly surprised. Our room was nicely furnished, with vintage/antique feeling furniture. Nice small bathroom. Overlooked the hills behind the hotel... a nice distant view. We arrived in the morning, and the front desk woman said we could leave our bags until checkin, and would text us if we could get an early checkin. She did text us around 1 pm that we could check in, but we were busy so didn't come back until normal checkin time. After checkout, we again left our bags in the lobby (with many others) until our afternoon ferry. I liked the building and front porch. My only complaint is that there was no coffee anywhere, either in the lobby or in our room. Otherwise, a short and sweet stay. The hotel was closer to the waterfront than I expected. It is toward the end of town, as you approach the Casino, and a short walk up a steep street. As long as you are comfortable walking, it's quick access to anything along the waterfront. Pulling our wheel suitcases was no problem for us."

"I had a great stay at the Atwater Hotel. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout my visit. My room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, which made it easy to settle in and enjoy my stay. The location is also a huge plus—very central and convenient, with easy access to everything I wanted to do in the area. Overall, I had a really positive experience and would definitely recommend the Atwater Hotel to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and well-located place to stay."

"This is a wonderful option if you are comfortable doing things on your own. I appreciated that they have a deal worked out with the taxi service to get you from the ferry landing to the hotel free of charge. I'm glad the arrival notes mentioned that a tip was not included, because it was expected. The driver waited for me to hand him cash. I was prepared and handed him some cash. Upon arrival, there was no one to greet me. The front desk, as it was, was empty. I waited for a while and looked around, but no one was there. Eventually, two women walked up the hill and started walking toward the stairs to their room. I asked if they could direct me to a front desk/greeting area, or where I might find hotel staff. They laughed and said they had the same experience when they arrived two days earlier. They walked me over to the "front desk" window and showed me that inside the window was a key card in an envelope with my last name on it. That is how I found out where my room was. I located my room and let myself in. The room itself was nice enough. It was clean. The bed was comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. I was only staying one night, so I didn't need it, but if I planned to stay longer, it would be nice. The bathroom was small, and the toilet ran all the time. I could not get it to stop running. The shower pressure was low, but that is typical on the island, so I was not surprised. All in all, a good deal. But don't expect five-star service, or any, really."

"The morning breakfast was simple but nice. The location was wonderful and the Metropole Marketplace had a cute tourist and coffee shop as well as a bowling alley that served food and a hotdog and hamburger place. The staff was helpful and proactively asked if we needed any advise regarding the island. The only critique I would have would be that the AC was kind of loud and had to be set very low to keep running. Fortunately my wife and I like it cool to sleep."
