The Owner, Ed, was 10/10 gracious upon check-in. So unexpected to be thanked for your patronage ( especially in the Bay Area!) and then to be pleasantly surprised at the actual accommodations!

Room was immaculate. Walls are thin and outside noise can be loud. All travelers should be aware that hotel doors open to the street. Staff was great.

The room was large, very clean and remodeled. Parking was convenient. The beds were not comfortable. There was no coffee maker or ice available. We spent one night to attend a concert. I would not stay here again.

No frills, but very clean everywhere. Refrigerator and microwave are handy. Bed was firm (which I prefer). A number of good food and coffee places right across the street. Excellent value for the price.

This was a perfect place to stay before an early flight the next morning. Was able to park directly in front of my room. The room was modest but comfortable and very clean. Ed at the front desk was super sweet. Thanks!
