Great staff. They let us check in and park early so we could check out the sites without paying for parking elsewhere. Walking distance to fisherman's wharf, easy for us and our 4yo. We walked to a small breakfast spot just a block over: good food, good staff, and we got a 10% discount when we mentioned we were staying at this hotel. Will definitely stay here again.

My family and I was there for a day to experience the 4th of July fireworks celebration held on the bay. Stay there allowed to walk to the event. Great customer service. Easy checking in close to places to eat and have a quick late night drink. Secured parking..

Great Room, Staff, and Location

Great staff. Fantastic free parking. Clean room. Just a few short blocks to Fishermans Wharf and Ghirardelli square. Right by all of the public transporation like the bus and the cable car. If we were going somewhere else besides on those routes, everything was just a ahort Waymo or Uber away. Only one very small thing was our room didn't have a mini fridge.

We went to Bimbos for a concert so chose this for the location. Its basic. Decent for the price. Probably could use a renovation. The plus is the parking and the minus is the overall condition. The price was right for this minus so it equals out.
