The staff were great, but the room was not in good condition, there was a lot of outside noise, there was no curtain in the shower and the single glass windows let all the noise in. The kids got bug bites as well.

I was told parking was free, then had to pay $30 per day. Property was nothing like the on line pictures, it was very outdated and in need of repairs. My wife and i couldnt sleep the whole night we stayed there because of noises inside and outside the motel. I paid for 2 nights, but packed up and left after the first. The room itself was clean, but it was in need of many repairs. The heater in the room was very loud as well.

This hotel is in poor condition. I felt a bit unsafe. The mattres was bumpy and very uncomfortable. The heater was insanely loud and we decided to keep it off to be able to sleep, but there were no blankets and we were freezing cold. Pillows were horrible. 0/10. Do not recommend this place.

Fits the need and location is perfect for touring.
Location was perfect. The bed needs to be replaced. Most outlets did not work and we could not plug in the coffee maker because it pulled too much power. But there was a Starbucks right around the corner. They charged $40 a day for parking which I thought was a lot. But our car was behind a gate the whole stay. It fits the need if you are going to be out in the city most of the time.

You can not control your heat or air in the room. You have to ask staff to turn it on, and they like doing that. WiFi is spotty and not secure.

Great location, it’s centrally located at Fisherman’s Wharf, what more can I say. Room is very comfy. Important note: parking is no longer free. This is a recent change, so older reviews state the old policy. Rooms need some renovation, but not really an issue.

Overall, I had a good experience. The hotel is conveniently placed near by public transportation, additionally the wharf is really nice. However, on our first night, we noticed that the shower wasn’t draining. We contacted staff and that was promptly fixed. I wished that the photos reflected that there’s no natural light in the room (there is one window but it’s to the hallway, hence no sunlight). It was obviously not a deal-breaker, just unexpected because the pictures when booking the stay all had windows with natural sunlight. Again, it was a decent stay overall.
