This was a pretty cool hotel, very convenient to where I had to go for my trip and was not a high traffic area so it was enjoyable very close to the scooters that I rented over the weekend. A good distance from the pier and Golden Gate Bridge, but very good place to stay if staying in the city.

The staff were all courteous and helpful. I loved hearing that until last year a single family had owned the hotel since 1929.
