We had a great stay at this hotel. It was close to all of the fisherman‘s wharf attractions, and lots of great restaurants were nearby. The hotel itself is very clean and modern. Early check-in was available for us which was an added bonus. We would definitely stay here again!

4/10 Fair

Not well maintained

It was my second and last time at this hotel.

NO aircon at night

The aircon shuts off at night when you are sleeping. I ended up waking up so many times just to turn the aircon back on. I had terrible sleep during my stay. Will not stay there again.
Ma Regina, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Terrible staff

The staff was unhelpful; they played on their phones the entire time and were not interested in assisting the guests. Don't bother valet parking, they just park it in the garage behind the hotel, save yourself the money and park yourself. This hotel is in a good location but next time I'll save myself the money and park stay somewhere else.

Location Great, Cleanliness Lacking

The hotel's location is fantastic for sightseeing, with easy access to attractions and restaurants. However, the cleanliness and comfort didn't quite match the price point. A bit disappointing in that regard.

This is a beautiful property and you can easily walk to so many sites, attractions and stores. The staff was so helpful and kind, the property is very well maintained and feels very safe.
