10/10 Excellent
"Room was very clean. Very comfortable bed. Staff was helpful with providing dinner recommendation. However, we weren't that impressed with the local restaurants we visited. The coffee shop in the hotel was really great. They have a nice little library. I enjoyed a wonderful book from it. The hotel is close to the bay, and a wonderful walking path. Trolly outfront takes you directly to the Aquarium. Parking easy, but $15, much less than San Francisco parking"

"I had an amazing stay. The building itself was beautiful with high ceilings and friendly staff. There are plenty of places to eat close by and the hotel is not too far from Cannery Row. There is only street parking available but I had not problem finding parking nearby for overnight. If you like staying in hotels with charm and history I would highly recommend this location."
