The hotel is located close to the Bay and many restaurants and shops, but the avenue outside is quite busy. The rooms provide basic comforts and a comfortable bed; however, the air conditioning could be more efficient. The service includes an airport shuttle and free shuttle service, with tours and ticket assistance available. The dining features fish dishes. Overall, the facilities are adequate but lacking some modern amenities.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, close to everything you need and just a stone's throw from the famous Golden Gate Bridge. The room was cozy and had a very comfortable bed. The staff provided excellent service, offering a free shuttle to the airport. The only downside was the limited dining options, but the included breakfast was tasty. The hotel facilities were great, especially the relaxing pool area.

The hotel is in a prime location, super close to everything and very near the most important hotspots of San Francisco. The rooms offer basic comforts with working air conditioning and a comfortable bed, and the breakfast is included. The service is exceptional, even providing airport shuttle and free shuttle services. Despite being right on a major boulevard, the hotel is surprisingly quiet and not far from the center. However, the dining experience might be improved with more artisan bread options.
