Disappointed
The check in process was fraught with issues and multiple attempts to get my credit card in their system. The hotel advertises a coffee cafe, but it no longer exists. No notice, and it felt deceptive as it shows it is available on their website, internal literature and on the TV info. Pool condition is poor. Pool felt slimy. The valet service is poorly understaffed. I waited over a half and hour to repark my car after my first night. The hotel staff tried, but overall a very disappointing experience. I will not return to this hotel.

Overnight Getaway
The hotel was very clean. No vending machines so that was a bummer. I like to have bottle water close by. The hotel charges $4 for a 16oz that’s in your room but it’s not cold. It may be for the little sad coffee that is “complimentary” but not really if you are being charged for the water. The location is great! So many restaurants at the Jack London square and most importantly, a coffee shop that opens at 6am!

My favorite place to stay in the bay area
My favorite hotel to stay at when I’m in the bay area. Right by the water with beautiful views. Right across from Yoshis live music club. Parking is a bit expensive so cheaper to Uber. Front desk service is always friendly. Rooms are maintained well. Could use a bit of a remodel, but still very comfortable. I hope that the Jack London Square area rebounds after Covid really diminished the area.
