This Hotel is in a very convenient location just a block or two from the restaurants and shops on the bay. There is plenty of parking and the street dies not appear to be busy. The room was nice and clean. The TV was a bit difficult in finding channels. This was a good value for the money.

Second stay here. Not fancy but nice. Great value for the price. Two things stand out; incredibly clean and great WiFi. All the staff with whom I dealt were very nice and very helpful. Older place that has been updated; however, the walls are pretty thin. Location is great. I was able to walk to downtown, the Embarcadero and Morro Rock.

This hotel didn't meet our expectations. It's definitely not a 3-star hotel. Pros: The room is clean, the mattress is good, the sheets and towels are fresh and clean (though the standard sized sheets didn't fit the king mattress so that significant part of mattress was just exposed). Newly remodeled bathroom with clean countertops. Parking is fine though by late evening all spots were taken despite many rooms non-occupied. That's pretty much it... Cons: Front-desk is non-existent (even though stated all-day availability). We had to wait for 10 minutes and ring a bell several times before someone finally showed up. Later, we haven't seen anyone there either at any time we passed by as well as at our check-out. Building is very old and worn out, no elevator. Room is fine but very smelly, with old carpets and greasy filthy surfaces everywhere they didn't wipe (e.g. doors and walls). In the newly remodeled bathroom they forgot to get exhaust ventilation (so it becomes misty every time after taking a shower). The water in the shower hardly flows at all, not enough pressure. Body wash container was practically empty, we put serious efforts to milk some last drops from it. And I don't know who designed power outlets on the nightstand lamps but you can't plug any charger in there except the smallest one as there's no room due to this design. We will try a different place next time.

The two staff people we talked with were very pleasant, friendly, and helpful. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. However, we have three minor complaints: internet connection was spotty. Plus, the balcony was narrow, both in length and width, making entry and exit to and from the balcony difficult and overall comfortable seating difficult. And the balcony railing was high with thick slats. While seated, it was difficult to see much.

The room was clean but the carpet is old and the room smelled very musty. The TV had no volume on several channels. The location was great, could walk everywhere and the people were nice.
