This is the perfect room for a lovely stay downtown. It is not too far from restaurants or the pier. It is a very clean room and the staff are excellent. The hotel itself is a bit run down, but it has a San Francisco charm and the room itself is comfortable.

Staff, Tea, was wonderful ‼️. But she would NOT replace soap and hand drying towels in your main bathroom?! Room was nice as was cleanliness and towels. Keep getting knocked off internet and almost had to beg for more coffee. But we did enjoy our stay. Wish we could have checked in a bit earlier!
