Convenient bec. it's very close to the wharf but the property needs a lot of upgrading. The elevator is so slow to operate and the area around is dirty. Somebody forgot to pick up a bag of garbage placed right next to our parked car. I liked the way they keep their parking garage door closed at all times.

It was within 2 blocks from Fisherman's Wharf, so walking distance to a lot of places. VERY outdated hotel....not in the best condition. Kinda like a third world country. Was glad to leave the place!

Average hotel, dreadful staff, good location.

Arrived and there was no one at reception. They were at lunch and back in 30 mins. Parked car and sent them a message via hotels.com to explain we had arrived and not sure where to park. Any issues, call as we were having lunch round the corner. Returned to the hotel and were told we had an early parking fee of USD 15 on top of USD 40. When I booked there was no fee - listed as free parking. Room fine, overpriced but good for our plans for the following day. Also charged additional partying next day - an additional USD15. Two major issues. Firstly, the parking fees which were annoying as I was expecting free parking. Secondly, the attitude of the staff. When I queried the payments and why they hadn’t call, there was zero customer service and they said they couldn’t make international calls. They did send a message via app which arrived five mins before we returned to the hotel. I am sure their zero customer service approach is driven by the lies over the parking and the staff have to enforce it. Presumably most guests spend a night or two and just suck it up. I am disgusted with this approach and would like fellow travellers to be aware when booking.

The only saving grace of this property is its proximity to Fisherman's Wharf. We were given a room facing the street with a balcony with somehow a view of the ocean. But since there is no air conditioning, you cannot open the windows for the breeze to come in because it is too noisy outside with people shouting and the big bus right beside the inn. When we arrived, the elevator was broken, and our room was on the third floor. We had to drag our luggage three floors up. Then the apps on the television were not working. This is the first leg of our honeymoon, and it did not add any good memories.

The staff were wonderful and the inn is close to pier 39 & tourist activities! It’s an older building with lots of history… so as long as you are flexible and adaptable, it’s a wonderful place to stay!!
