We are located in the busy Old Town restaurants & shopping district. Here are some parking tips!

1. I always try for street parking in front of the Bay Window building. If there isn’t anything immediately available, 
2. then I park in front of the gazebo, or double park to unload. 
3. Street spaces open up very frequently, and there are several side streets close to the building. The busiest time in Old Town (Bay Street) is the dinner hour, otherwise parking is generally easy to find close to the front door or on side streets.
4. Parking is readily available in the evenings, but if necessary there is additional parking in the lot in front of the Bodega Food & Wine Parlor. The spaces for First American Title are available after 5pm.

We are currently on a waiting list for reserved parking, but even that is a block away. So I highly recommend parking on Bay Street for the most convenient parking. 

(Re: Early check in - it’s important to pre arrange early check in for two mainreasons.First, to allow our housekeeping staff to work without interruption. Second, our electronic lock system is set up for an after 4pm arrival. The locks will not open for your code before 4pm on check in day. I’m happy to provide free pre arranged early check in whenever it is possible. 🙂)
