We stayed one night and the location was fantastic. It was close to everything we wanted to accomplish. I love how clean it was and how clean it smelled throughout. We didn’t find it as noisy as others reported. There was a constant buzzing from the air units outside our room, but ear plugs did the trick. If I had to knit pick it would be that they advertise a heated pool and it wasn’t very warm. Also, I asked if the fire place by the pool could be turned on, but nobody ever came. Overall, we loved our stay and will return. We hope that maybe some spicy peppers or salsa can be added to the buffet! Tabasco is not spicy enough. :)

This property greatest asset is being very close to Fisherman's wharf which equates to them not trying to hard. First, the rooms are extremely noisy, especially in the other building. Do not let them put you there, they are paper thin. Secondly, within the bathrooms there are just squeeze bottles on the wall for soap by the sink, no hand lotion or bar soap. Very Motel 6. The rooms are dated, but decent size. The doormen are extremely rude screaming at people to move their vehicles in the unloading process, because you load in an alley between the 2 buildings. I understand the issue, but be kind and mark clearly where you want the vehicles. The breakfast is a complete ==== show, same stuff everyday and you are warned if you come between 8-9 for the breakfast that is included in your room it may take a great deal of time to get a table, so they have a roped line in the hallway. Again, fiqure it out, expand the space. But really this is all about the money and ripping tourists off. Try somewhere else.

It was excellent. The breakfast was delicious and the room spacious and very nice. It feels very safe. My only very slight complaint is the reviews stating it was noisy at night is true. It’s more that you can just hear people in the hallway as the doors are thin.
