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.

The only bad thing was parking- their parking garage had low clearance- suvs or normal size pickup trucks don’t fit & had to park in public garage across the street. And there was a puddle of urine next to my drivers side door the next morning.
