When we first arrived, the attendant gave us the wrong room, which was nothing like the pictures. The rooms heater did not work there are holes in the walls. When I looked over my room details I went to the office and told them I paid for an ocean view room she told me that the computer automatically gave me the room. She corrected the room and gave us the room we paid for. This room was nicer, but the hotel is old, it had chipped paint, the toilet wouldn’t flush(they brought me a plunger) no microwave in room it had a coffee maker but no bottles of water. The bed was comfortable and the heater worked but it was either on or off it would not shut off after a temp was reached. We stayed 3 days and we were only there to sleep as we were out all day. The location is perfect next to everything plus the bus and trolly system. I would stay here again but I would be prepared for the room.

We arrived at 7 pm, and unfortunately there was no parking left in the hotel lot. However, there was a parking structure a 2 minute walk away that was reasonably priced for the night with in/out privileges. The room itself was clean, though the refrigerator had an odor. The beds were very comfortable, shower was hot, and room was quiet. All things considered, we would stay at this hotel again. You really can’t beat the location and proximity to Fisherman’s Wharf. It was less than a 15 minute walk to Ghirardelli Square and less than a 5 minute walk to Pier 39.

The staff at this hotel was great for the most part - but the hotel needs a little love. Great location - walkable to most things. Heat didn't work properly, the curtains were stained... it needs a good wash and a coat of paint. The beds were clean, mattresses could be flipped... you sort of rolled to the side of the bed!! bathroom was clean. They didn't say rooms weren't being cleaned and we had to ask for towels, coffee, cups, changing garbage - and because it was cold out with heat not working properly we had to ask for blankets. When we arrived the key to the door wouldn't work and the young lady on the front desk had to come with new lock assemblies to try and change it so the door would lock! Asking a lot of someone probably not making a great wage!! Great parking, very secure.

The hotel is older and a little run down, but very clean and safe. Literally across the street from the Pier which was unbelievable! Walking distance to several amazing restaurants, the Aquarium and the tour boats. Staff was gone a lot with a sign "be back in 5" but gone for well over an hour on more than one occassion, so that was frustrating especially when we lost our key and couldn't get in. Parking is a bit expensive, but saves you from having to pay for street parking and the parking garage is behind a key card gate, so is very safe. The beds were very comfy. Shower is very small and water pressure was lacking, but for the price it was worth it!
