“Convenient Pier 39 with mixed Service experience”
Jul 16, 2026hemant r
🌟 Positives
Location: Close to Pier 39, with partial harbour views — definitely a plus for family gatherings.
Amenities: Daily complimentary tea/coffee and evening cocktails add a nice touch.
Shops & Restaurants: Plenty of nearby options for convenience.
Staff: Morning shift ladies stood out as friendly and honest.
⚠️ Negatives
Room Level: Low floor limited the view.
Service Consistency: Misguidance from elder gentlemen during the day shift about the in-room beverage machine.
Water Access: Free water only available at reception, which is less convenient.
📝 Overall Impression
A decent stay with good location perks and thoughtful extras, but service consistency and small inconveniences (like water collection and room floor assignment) impacted the experience.
“Great location and amazing staff”
Jul 11, 2026Jennifer S
Friendly and helpful staff. They provided water through our stay. They held our luggage after checkout so we could explore the city longer. The rooms are clean and the beds are so comfortable. The bathroom was gorgeous and the shampoo conditioner they provided smelled so good. The location is great! You can easily walk to Fisherman's Wharf into public transportation. I highly recommend staying here and would absolutely stay here again.
“Very good hotel”
Jul 10, 2026martync607
Great hotel in a superb location for the harbour and Alcatraz. Free drinks available each night for 1- hour, which was a great touch. Did not eat at the hotel, but the restaurant looked descent. Good gym and great for the family
