The location of the hotel is great.It's right on the water and our upper harbor room had great views especially Boldt castle. We also were able to watch the large ships passing by. Despite Uncle Sams Boat Tours being right next door to the hotel it was peacefully quiet.The private balcony with a table and chairs was a big plus.We loved our stay at Capt. Thomson's resort.
