Not like pictures

It was nothing like the pictures. It was very run down. The room was clean but very run down. Definitely not worth what I paid for, however I realize the location of this inn was on the warf. So that could be why it’s pricy. Parking was only $30 a day. That’s a great price compared to other places. Service from the staff was great. Always professional and willing to help.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were friendly and helpful, but they weren't always present or available. The room was clean, but it was in serious need of updating. The fixtures were old and loose, the bedding was thin and cheap, and the flooring was worn. The light from the hallways blares into the room, and it's impossible to get it dark. Plus, the city sounds come right through the thin walls. The location is great - nice and close to all the attractions at the Pier. But I thought the pricepoint was high for the state of the hotel. No more than 2 stars. Would not stay here again.

Looks a bit shaggy from the outside but the pictures matched my room on the inside. It was a perfect location for the Warf and had tbe Big Bus tour directly across the street. Everything was secured bt having your room to access the fates and elevator. Also the 24 hr staff was always by the entrance so I felt safe.

Walkable distance to most piers including Alcatraz Landing Pier 33. Many food options in the area. The noise level can get high at night as hotel faces 7-Eleven and near busy streets. We found our junior suite comfortable and spacious for a family. We don’t have any complaints. Stay would be better if breakfast was offered especially now that you will be charged for parking. We parked at the hotel but we saw plenty of public parking nearby and cheaper.

Amazing location, I had my 1.5 year old son with me and they had a portable crib available at no additional cost. Be able to just walk down and half a block away from the piers were perfect for just the two of us. The hotel/parking were very safe as it’s gated. Definitely will be staying here next time.
