Everything was good, only we did not have a brush to clean the toilet, and the bins were without a cover (I was with a cold, so when I cleaned my nose with Kleenex and threw it in the bin), the germs could fly in the room and infect others. Thank you for your attention

The staff member at reception was rather rude. Given the room 2601. Right on the corner of the block and the furthest away from the main entrance. No services to help with luggage. All you can hear all night is the sound of cars racing up and down the street with loud engines, people high on drugs. The room didn’t maintain an ambiant temperature and was always cold, including the bathroom and the tiled floor was freezing The bed was comfy and the breakfast was ok. But not enough to make me recommend this hotel to anybody or to stay here again.

It’s a convenient location if you want to spend time in the Fisherman’s Wharf Area walking distance They have nice decorations in the lobby for the holidays Nice ambiance with fire pit outside where you can relax at the bench also used the swimming pool Breakfast was great lots of selection you get seated in an orderly manner There was an issue with the room that I stayed with cub web on top of the sink and one of the bed everytime you move it moves as well I took a video of this and told the supervisor when I checked out she kindly apologized and waved my resort fee I just hope house keeping do a thorough check on the rooms that they clean so this will not happen again on other guest and volt the bed so it won’t move.
