2. ive read alot of reviews of this hotel and most were not good but let me tell you its not a bad place the staff is nice the rooms were small but ok its not a five star buts its not a dump the hotel is showing its age but its holding up nicely its its in a great location close to everything a ton of bars and restaurants in walking distance its also one of the few hotels in the bay area that has a smoking floor id be more than willing to stay there again we stayed in thier largest suite about 480 sq ft we had no problems with noise from the street and im a very light sleeper even the smallest room about 165 sq ft would be fine for a bussiness travler or a couple there for the weekend beware the rooms have no ac only heat the rooms have fans but during a heat wave they wouldnt help bottom line not a bad place.
