Decent motel close to the Fisherman's Wharf area. (Short drive) We found no problem with the key working. Just be patient with it. Checked in at 3 so we had a selection of parking spots to choose from. Be careful if showering as the tile can be slippery.

Parking was fine.Have had passed experience staying here and was always easy in/easy out,but this time wasn’t the same.checked in early like usual-Rooms not available yet but always pay and take care of parking permits so when I come back late night all I need to do is pick up key to a room.guy in office gave me a hard time for about twenty minutes before giving me my key and that’s the last thing I need at 1am,especially since I need to be back at work by 10 am

The room was very dirty. The doors were very gross, strains and dirty all over them. Very dusty door frame, dirty head boards. Holes in the walls, ceilings have water damage. Mold all around the baseboards. Lights has caked up dirt and dusty all over them all! Outlets has dirt/mold or whatever it was called all over them. The room really needs a super deep clean. I had to clean the A/C vent because it was blowing dusty air!
