Where do I start ! Well how about every floor flooded including stairways. Wet stairways. Broken elevator so you have to climb 4 floors to your room. Dirty sheets, and bathroom, dressing table wallpaper and bathroom cabinet in ill repair doors falling off. Trying to grab coffee and it is instant with a spoon in it for multiple users. What... More

Ok, the rooms are big but I would prefer smaller one's who are really clean and neat!!! The top of our small table next to the bed was sticky. Also the strong smell of the room was very irritating, I guess it was the cleaning powders or somewhat. The breakfast they are offering is kind of poor, on a small... More

I was very concerned after reading the reviews for this hotel on TripAdvisor but I am so glad I reserved this hotel anyway. The staff was pleasant and helpful and the continental breakfast was just fine (these were the two major complaints of this hotel). We stayed in the king suite which sleeps six and we loved the way it... More

This place is great! i really think the owner is a sweetheart it seems that she's getting a bad rap for issues that are associated with the third party vendors. I had one issues with... More

If I could give the service a lower rating then a 1 I would in a heartbeat. I was coming up to San Fran for a birthday weekend with my boyfriend, before arrival I was already given a lot of attitude from the owner, who hung up on me three times while I tried to cancel my reservation and was...

When I checked into this hotel, Maher Patel - Hotel Manager, was very nice and helpful. I had two rooms and she was very accommodating in putting my rooms side by side and also to my requests for quiet rooms. Since then this is my second trip to the city and I immediately booked at this hotel. Very clean rooms... More
