The room was clean but the bathroom doesn't have an exhaust system that after taking a bath everything you hold on to is moist & wet. The bath towels are thin due to prolonged usage. There's no hair dryer no laundry facilities & request for room cleaning is not guaranteed. But as a whole I will give it 3 stars.

It was great in that it was a short walk to the ocean and not very expensive for the location. Biggest drawback, the door's safety latch was missing and the bed was so hard it felt like the floor .

The upgrades of white bed coverlets and laminate wood floors are good. Parking is included and convenient. The location is well situated for visiting the Embarcadero and waterfront.

We stayed in a deluxe room with 2 queen beds. The room was clean, and it was nice to have the extra space, a fridge, a microwave, and a small kitchen sink. However, there were only 4 hangers, no hair dryer and no coffee maker. I couldnt get the TV to show anything but the USA channel. There were no toiletries other than shampoo and soap attached to the wall of the shower. The bed was ok if you like a mattress that is somehow hard and squishy at the same time. Those who prefer flat, hard pillows will be in heaven. I asked the front desk for extra pillows and hangers, not once but twice, and they never brought any or got back to me. So I didnt see any point in asking for a hair dryer or a coffee maker. On the bright side, this is a good neighborhood for restaurants and coffee shops. This is not the worst hotel Ive stayed at, by a long shot. If the amenities and the customer service had been better, I would stay here again.

I have to go down to the lobby every time I need to get in my room as the key they give says its working but it doesn't. Staff do come up (I'm in the third floor) and they see that all cards aren't working.
