Our room was fine. everything as it should be. We had, over the course of our stay, rather a lot of small needs-- ALL met quickly, cheerfully, promptly. Really outstanding service. The beds were fine, the bathroom was fine. Hot water for tea was readily available 24 hours a day in the lobby. Great advice from several concierges. FABULOUS location-- close to several bus lines, a cable car line, and Fisherman's Wharf (we were doing The Tourist Thing. Trader Joe's and a Walgreen's very near. I'd be tempted NOT to write a great review so fewer people would know how great this place is, but... can't be greedy. Kudos to all the staff-- that's downstairs we well as the people who took care of us upstairs on a daily basis-- for exceptional work. Cannot stress how happy and comfortable we were while there. Absolute top marks. Read less

The hotel is in a good location and we were able to walk to Fisherman's Wharf. The room was very nice. You pay for valet parking (only other option is you find your own street parking). The only complaint is the continental breakfast was bite-sized muffins and one kind of cookie.

It was in a great location being in walkable distance to Fisherman's Wharf. There is also a tourist station as you walk into the hotel to the left and they're able to give out great advice.

Fantastic stay, rooms were spacious and clean. Staff was very polite and helpful. Good location close to the harbor. The area can be a little bit loud at times however the hotel provided earplugs and eye mask. Complimentary coffee offered daily.
