Easy, clean experience and accessible

My family and I was there for a day to experience the 4th of July fireworks celebration held on the bay. Stay there allowed to walk to the event. Great customer service. Easy checking in close to places to eat and have a quick late night drink. Secured parking..

Perfekte Lage, fußläufig gelegen zu Fishermans Wharf oder für eine Cable Car Tour. Gratis Parken, Platz war nie knapp. Die Einrichtung ist betagt, aber gut gepflegt und sauber. Uns hat es gefallen und wir empfehlen es weiter!
