"Enjoyed my stay. The place is very close to Cabrillo Blvd, which runs along the
beach
, so it's only a 5-minute walk to an
ocean view
and about a 10-minute walk to State St. The room had just about everything I needed, the bed was comfortable. The WiFi was decent, not super-fast. One of the nicest things about this place is that it's right around the corner from Toma, which has a great cioppino. And other good restaurants are within walking distance. Would definitely stay here again and recommend...

"Do not stay at this hotel. This property is not worth the cost. We had several occasions in which the customer service was poor: - Moaning about other guests and staff in front of customers, extremely unprofessional - Following noise from other guests (playing music loudly and revving a car, driving it around the car park while also smoking cannabis in early hours of the morning), the staff moved us to another room.
