Disaapointed

I was disappointed in my stay here. You have a beautiful view of the ocean. The room was nice. HOWEVER, the roof top jacuzzi area reeked like urine! We went to the 2nd floor jacuzzi reeked and bubbled from soap in it. Let front desk lady know we were grossed out. Told her we might check out early. She could care less. The. We t to shower and use a robe. It had black hair on it. Was it really clean. Went back down to tell front desk. Front desk guy did send up fresh robes and champagne and tried to make it right. The price is not worth stay.

The front desk workers were friendly and helpful when it came to recommendations and any questions we had. Dennis especially gave us a good recommendation for whale watching which we saw plenty of whales so thank you Dennis. The surrounding area was really nice since the hotel is basically in the middle between Fisherman's Wharf and Cannery Row which made any walk easy. The view from our room was spectacular since we faced the harbor. During our stay the sea lions were on the beach in front of us which was nice but at the same time could be annoying to anyone that doesnt like a lot of sounds when sleeping. Overall the hotel pleased me and the wife and we would love to stay there again for any future vacations we do in the future. 10/10 would stay again.

Easy parking and check in right on Cannery Row. If you're a light sleeper it may not be the place for you because the sea lions bark down on the beach all night. But it was very convenient to walk to dinner, shops, and the Aquarium during our stay.

The property made me feel safe, the staff was very nice and helpful. Loved that they brought the free continental breakfast to your room, they offered free bottles water. Was right at the oceans edge, the seals were a little annoying all night but they had a portable fan in the room that was like a white noise so we slept great. Very clean nice looking. We will absolutely stay there again. Was in walking distance to restaurants cannery row and the fishermen ward. Hot tub and fire pit made a great ending to a great day.
