Nice hotel in the center of many amenities in Fisherman’s Wharf!
Pros:

Hotel room was very spacious. The bed was comfortable. The hotel has a nice concept with games and interesting decor. It is very family friendly.

Cons:

The room had carpet and it was a bit smelly when airco was not on. It would be much better with tiles or wooden floor.

The location of the Hotel was the best
Pros:

I liked that there was a variety of things for my teenage girls to do while we weren’t out and about. The location of the motel was the best!

Cons:

More options of an exit towards the pier. The only exit that was available was through the side doors and the smell wasn’t the best as you exited the street.

Emplacement parfait pour rayonner dans Frisco !
Pros:

Parfaitement placé près du Pier 39 - zone très touristique.
Assez silencieux malgré la proximité des attractions principales.
Parking facile d'accès.
Personnel plutôt disponible.
Expérience plutôt satisfaisante dans l'ensemble.

Cons:

Hôtel vieillissant - équipements et mobilier pas toujours en bon état de fonctionnement.
Parking en plus très cher (60$ par nuit) mais c'est souvent le cas.
Chambre avec vue sur le pier pour 90$ de plus que le tarif normal.

Great place to stay for the location! It’s perfect.
Pros:

Proximity to fisherman’s wharf, Big Bus Tours, restaurants was amazing.

Cons:

Only one elevator was working - wait was longer - no vending machines for drinks/snacks - room was sort of clean, door to washroom was very sticky (Coke or pop) and had it wipe it down with a disinfectant wipe, also a lot of dust on night table which was never cleaned while we were there .
