Our room was not very nice.. I’m surprised the amount of people rating it so high. They seemed to use the ruse of a Victorian hotel to justify the cracks in paints and overall terrible room quality.

The hotel was so lovely. We thought our room was quite cozy and cute. The bathroom and bed was clean and so were the floors. Service was great. Breakfast was simple but it can get you full. It would have been nice to have a mini fridge in the room as we had some food we needed to store, although they do provide ice so this is mostly just poor planning on our part. Otherwise, its a very lovely hotel in a nice area and some interesting history.

Room needed some TLC broken fridge door, unit hasn't been painted in forever and light fixtures attempt to be Victorian charm but just old and random. 1 of entrance doors wouldn't open. Furniture in poor condition, old and chipping. Extra blankets were from the 1970s. Stay included breakfast, but barely-always out of bagels, no butter available-offer a parfait, but there was a long hair in the cup. No room service at all one of the days. Some bath towels were so overused they were no longer white, but gray. Pros-good location-outside courtyard was pleasant, ice machine was great for day trips. Desk folks were nice. Room was spacious.

We stayed in a one bedroom queen room with patio access. It was pretty basic and could use an upgrade. I went with a friend so we needed two beds. They said the sofa in the living area was additional sleeping, but it was a hard futon couch that opened to a single size bed with a groove down the middle, not comfortable at all. The bedroom was fine, The rooms were a bit stuffy and stale, the outdoor seating area looked tacky with little effort put into the upkeep of the chairs and tables. The fireplace was nice and the location is perfect. Staff are friendly, courteous and professional. Yogurt parfaits are great, but the pastries were just so-so. Most likely won't stay here again.

It’s a nice experience to live in a historic building, feeling like a guest staying at a relative’s house. It’s very safe to walk around at night. It’s very convenient of going to the beach, dining and shopping. Parking is easy too.

Charming

First stay at the Centrella. The cottage was charming, spacious and comfortable with everything you need. Breakfast was yummy and location, location, location. You are centrally located near Lighthouse Ave for restaurants and shopping, a short walk to Lovers Point and the beach and about a 20 minute walk to Cannery Row and the aquarium. Great spot. Will be back.
