8/10 Good
"Overall a good stay. It was a large room and overall well kept. Very conveniently located. Some cons: Breakfast was quite basic. And my faucet in the kitchen didn't work but I only stayed a night so wasn't a big issue for me."

10/10 Excellent
"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."
