Brian

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Really liked the property as it was a terrific historical hotel. Proximity to things we enjoy was great. It is an old hotel and sleeping with windows open in Sept was difficult due to traffic on the street throughout the night. That was the only challenge but expected as air conditioning is not needed in this area. However, we loved the hotel.

We stayed 1 night on the historic side, which I’m glad about. There was a great little coffee shop/cafe on the same corner, which was nice (hotel also serves complimentary coffee by 7am, but we were up early to go backpacking). Walkable to restaurants and Cannery Row, sites, etc. Staff was friendly. Would stay again for sure.

Inconvenient stay

My stay at this hotel was disappointing due to several issues. First, the rooms do not have AC, which made the stay uncomfortable. Second, my room key card constantly stopped working—I had to go back to the front desk every time to have it reactivated, which was very frustrating. Finally, the elevator is not directly accessible from the first floor; you must climb half a floor by stairs to reach it, which is very inconvenient, especially if you have luggage.
