Nice, but would look elsewhere next time.

Standard as far as hotel goes. Pro - location close to all. Con - water pressure is dismal. Ask for a room not facing the train. You can hear it at night. Coffee shop only open mornings and evenings. You out if you need afternoon snack. Wall and ceilings ate thin. You can hear your neighbors easily even if they aren’t making much noise.

Nice and convenient

Modern, spacious room with a decent shower and comfortable beds. I appreciated that the rooms had hard flooring instead of carpet. Valet parking sounds expensive at $55 a night but city parking was $40 and nearly two blocks away, so it might be worth the convenience to you. Close to the Pier and mall as well as a Trader Joe’s just across the street. My only gripe was the price.

Parking was expensive. No options other than to park at the hotel via valet. The TV in our room wouldn’t even turn on. And there’s no real dining options aside from a small and limited starbucks satellite location. I was supposed to be gifted points to my Marriott Account for the inconvenience of the television, but that never showed up.
