It was okay.

Pros: Lots of food choices around the area including Starbucks. Looks clean.

Cons: Nobody asked when we came in if we need help in our luggage. The bed creeks, make some noises when you move while sleeping. Parking is not included. You need to pay 50 bucks per night.

overcharges and underwear and ants

Pros: Proximity to the wharf

Cons: 1. Found a man's underwear in the drawer. 2. I was never informed I would be charged an additional$100 on the day of our check-in. I saw the charge on my online visa statement and told only after my inquiry. Since there were no damages to the room, I should expect a refund in a few days. My experience has been that possilbe extra charges are done after check-out and NOT on the day of check-in. 3. A few ants coming out of the heater. 4. A $51 charge for underground parking because of the high rate of car break-ins so I parked there, only to find they also have overnight parking in the gated registration lot but told the price is the same???? Likely or another way to charge more???? No transparency.

Pros: The view of our room wasn't great but we checked in late at night and leaving early in the morning,so we didn't care. It was clean ok but behind the drawers and the TV stand wasn't for a long time, lots of dust and coweds..The parking was very expensive, $57.00 total. The other hotel we had stayed a week ago 2 blocks away it was $26.00....Unbeleivable priced! The wrapped sandwich that we had from the "snack booth " restaurant (it was closed), it was very good and priced fair.

Cons: Garage parking price, $57.00 total...too expensive...

We found a condom in the bed!

Cons: We walked into our room and decided to check the beds before we went to sleep because we heard of bed bugs at this hotel. And to our surprise we found a condom! We called the front desk and they sent up a security guard (not a manager, which was weird). They switched our room but offered no other accommodations. After we called to complain they said they couldn't do anything more than they did...they also mentioned they would call us back and never did. Not a good experience.... I can understand a messy room, maybe a cigarette but an open condom on the bed is unacceptable.

Great Location.

Pros: It's just a block away from the main street. In close proximity to bars and restaurants . The staff at the front desk was very helpful. We didn't go to the bar at the hotel but it looked inviting and we would have if we had more time.

Cons: The hotel is a little older but nicely maintained.

SF

Pros: Location, availability of Uber drivers, value. Near enough to family in SF to get together with a short Uber. My purpose for the trip was to help a family member and I was not at the hotel much except for sleeping.

Cons: My room this time was on the Main Street in the Wharf Building and the Marriott hotel across the street had trash pickup at 3 am which was very noisy and lasted over an hour including loud talking and clinging of metal containers. Lost some sleep due to this. Otherwise hotel was quiet. Will specify room location next time!
