"Stayed at one of the newer and cleaner queen rooms w/ private restroom (which looks incredible). Amenities are bare bones (water/coffee machines at lobby) but the biggest plus is the quiet location. Walking to the North Beach strip does get crowded but heading back here somehow cuts all the noise."
