8.2/10 Very Good! (1,505 reviews)
The Hotel was fairly clean. The beds were comfortable. The ceiling fan blade was dangling when we walked in our room. The windows open all the way and that is a big safety concern for me as i have dogs, and children. No ac, and the room was so warm it was hard to sleep. Nice views of the bay. Close to Mo's for dinner. Staff is very nice. Fridge in room is really noisy. People were smoking on the balconies so we cpupdnt open our window to cool off.
