Weekend getaway

Loved that it was close to everything. Most stuff was a 10-minute walk or less. Staff was great! The hotel was clean. The rooms are on the smaller side, which was fine other than getting up from the bed because there was not much walkway between the bed and the wall. The air conditioner was really loud when running.

A great location

The most comfortable beds and bedding ever- so impressed. Location great for exploring Fisherman’s Wharf area. Nice touches, free coffee in the morning until 10am, borrow a plant to keep you happy, record player in room- with record library, between 5-6 pm free wine/ beer in the lobby lounge which turned into a nice social gathering to meet other guest. Most amazing Thai restaurant 5 mins walk away New Thai Elephant. Not so good:- Corridors looking rather tired and marked. Breakfast is actually an $50 credit - 2eggs and 1 slice of toast was$14 before taxes / sausage, bacon and 1 slice of toast $21 not enough left for a drink after taxes. Our room was the longest walk away with only central lift.

I didn’t receive any VIP Benefits however I rated it highly for other reasons. First the beds and bedding are wonderful! I slept so good because of that and the temp control allowed for cool sleeping which I need. The bathroom shower was good pressure and lots of hot water. They offer free happy hour which I didn’t take advantage of but is nice they offer. Overall great stay and very convenient to walk to many attractions in area!
