Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Staff was great and polite, but the room and building were outdated and old. Carpets were gross and appeared to not have been cleaned in a while. You could hear everything inside and outside of the hotel room, street sweepers, music, garbage truck, etc. room was old, patches in ceiling, holes in the wall where a painting might have been? Carpets old and gross looking. The bed and pillows were uncomfortable. Overall, the price was not worth what was paid.

The room is very dated. The hair dryer was melted on the wall which was strange. The iron also didn't work.

Hotel is in a very convenient location close to Fisherman's Wharf, just a 10 minute walk away. Staff helpful and courteous. Sadly the historic part of the hotel where my room was located is in need of renovation, the property looks quite tired.
