Room was ok, typical Motel 6 but it was clean. View of boat harbor was nice. Lots of activity outside in the night, people taking and walking around at 3 am. Wouldn’t recommend for solo women or women with children traveling.

Staff is great, the motel is old and outdated, old pillows and blankets and the A/C was falling apart: very noisy and not working very well. We got a room with a beautiful view of the Embarcadero that really helped with our stay.Thank you
