Wonderful

Reserved a room for two nights December 27-28. There was no heat in the room. Desk is not manned after 9 pm. In the morning, notified the desk and maintenance confirmed that there was no heat. It was after noon day two before we were moved to a room with heat. It was below 30 degrees the first night. A refund was requested and we were told to request a refund from Expedia. My card was charged for the second night at check-in. Heat is expected in December in Maine. What is my recourse?
Friendly staff, easy to find, close to downtown Shopping. Only negative was that we were not aware that our room was going to be right above the live entertainment.
Right in town. Very easy to get to everything in the downtown area. The restaurant on the property is very convenient.

The property has beautiful views and is convenient to all of the shops. Unfortunately the cleanliness of the room was terrible. It had looked as if only the bed was made. From the toilet, to the dust in the room was pretty gross. There was no time to ask for another room, as we were rushing to get to a wedding.
The Tugboat is an older property and it shows. The location is great for visiting Boothbay Harbor but the room is a bit rough around the edges. The key was hard to work to the door, luckily a staff member was in the area and explained the way to make it work....would have been helpfull at check in. There was an empty kleenx box with no replacement and only plastic water cupe for the coffee pot. For the price, not a gooe fit
The Tugboat Inn is located at a very quaint place by the water with a beautiful view. The front office ladies were very nice and informative. We would definitely stay at the Tugboat again.
