The Good
The majority of the reviews sourced for this analysis were positive, with praise going to the hotel's location, breakfast and rooms.

The hotel's location was praised by numerous reviewers, who found it close to Fisherman's Wharf, Pier 39, public transit, Golden Gate Bridge, the waterfront, Ghirardelli Square, the airport and restaurants. One patron noted, "The location is fantastic, in walking distance to a lot of attractions and public transport on your door step. Taxis can be found outside the Hotel all day and night".

Many lodgers enjoyed the free breakfast, describing it as plentiful and fresh, with a good selection of hot and cold items. One guest remarked, "Instead of having week old muffins and dry cereal as is typical for a lot of hotel continental buffets, there was everything from biscuits and gravy to fresh cinnamon rolls and fresh fruit, eggs, turkey sausage and pancakes. It was a pleasant surprise!". A few guests did complain the breakfast was very busy on certain mornings, however.
