Would stay again, the staff and presentation of rooms were great. The location is excellent!
Pros:

The hotel is in an excellent location, 5-10 min walk to central downtown, across the road from Beacon Hill Park and close enough to walk to Fisherman’s Wharf. Good restaurants within walking distance also.

Cons:

Only the size of the bathroom, but everything else was excellent
