Meh…..

So, this place is way overpriced. The only reason it’s reasonable is because it is close to the airport and everything else is way higher. It served its purpose but I would not recommend it for a casual stay in the area. And, without a car, you’re pretty much stuck getting delivery. Not bad, but not great either and not worth the money

So so

The heater didn’t work unfortunately they had also left a window open with the curtains shut so I never knew the window was open also. I stayed there once before and it was fine, but this was kind of below average.

We were told there were no first floor rooms with 2 beds….I doubt this as the place was nearly empty. The water pressure in the shower was so low it was not usable.

At first the place is very nice and clean looking,with strange, yet interesting retro decor. However, the bathtub is broken and shower difficult to control temperature. Old cigarette burn scars everywhere including the bedding. Also sand in the bed???? TV updating signal every 5 min. You have to ring for the staff even during the day.

Met Our Needs For What We Came For

Room was retro. Massage chair, old style fridge, freezer, and microwave definitely made this stay fun considering we needed a cheap night to stay before a long visit to UCSF transplant center the following day. We had issues with satellite TV and massage chair at first, but manager attended to the issues promptly. Lock did not complete lock, which was concerning, but locked regardless. Towels, floor, and bed covers had ink stains. Overall, it was better than expected for what we came for. Plus, really good authentic Mexican food in the area “Los Cuates Taqueria” salsa was spicy as hell.
