Misleading and disappointing — hidden fees and inaccurate room details I was not informed about the additional parking fee until after I had already checked in and asked where to park. It was frustrating to find out I had to pay extra per night without any prior notice. The room was also not as advertised. I booked a room with two queen beds, but what we got were more like twin beds — definitely not what was promised. I wish this property was more upfront and transparent so that guests know what to expect. Unfortunately, this experience left a lot to be desired. Also, there was no one in the front lobby to let me in and I stayed outside for about 20 minutes waiting for someone to arrive and let me in.

Family weekend trip

The overall stay was good. The room was a bit on the smaller side. We could not hear our neighbor except if you were in the bathroom. You could hear very clearly the neighbors conversations and other things.

We had an idea that the hotel wouldn't be a 5 star resort, but the photos online are misleading. The "superior" rooms are not titled correctly, they are dated and things were broken and things that were repaired were done incorrectly. I would have seen past this if the management of the hotel would have called me back after the front desk attendant put in a claim "I assure you they will reach out" but that never happened. With a major investment and serious renovation this would be a nice place but in the current condition it isn't.

Hotel room was clean and staff was kind and helpful. I would consider staying again as the surrounding area was convenient. There were nearby grocery stores and many restaurants. I traveled for the SF marathon so the location was perfect for the trip.
