Spotless is a stretch but it was clean enough. I checked in very late (2AM) so had to pound on the window and ring the bell for 15 minutes before the agent appeared but I understand it was late and he was sleeping. Otherwise it was fine and well-situated near the beach. Price was fair.

For a low cost hotel, very clean, rooms have been redone and very nice for cost. Parking is limited. The one issue we had was the bar in nextdoor. Band started playing after 10 and got extremely loud until very late.

Not the place to stay if you need a good night’s sleep due to bar noise. The room itself was fine.

It gets 5 stars not because its a 5-star motel (motel not hotel) it gets 5-stars because location wise and time of year it was a great value and reasonable overall price for an outer sunset place to stay during new years. Walking to java beach every morning brings me back

The location was convenient. Two blocks from the beach and right on the muni line. The band in the bar downstairs was quite loud some nights. The vents on the heater needed cleaning desperately

Below the hotel there's a pub, and people are talking outside until 2 AM, making a lot of noise. In front of the hotel there's a subway line, which also makes a lot of noise until midnight.
