The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean. The location was good. There is no parking available so I had to pay to park in a public garage ($16.00 for overnight) or find street parking in the residential area a few blocks away.

Overall it was a good stay. Parking was very easy in an attached garage. No problem getting a spot. The location was great. Was able to walk to restaurants and the pier. The balcony was huge with a nice view. My only complaint was that the neighbors next to me were smoking pot. And there was no coffee in the room.
