We'll be back
This is our 4th stay, we have stayed on every floor toward the ocean. 2nd floor over the restaurant is noisy. 3rd floor corner partially looks over the parking lot next door which is fine (and the room is a lot bigger and technically an upgrade). 4th floor has a raised ceiling and an extra window that can't be covered. But overall we keep coming back because everyone is friendly and the rooms are larger than the usual, and that little cove by the window has lights and total blackouts so we can hang as the toddler falls asleep. I think a few things could use a bit of maintenance like the shower fixtures were falling apart (but worked). But otherwise, we like the character and for the location (near aquarium and Ghirardelli) plus views plus service, we'll likely be back.

Romantic seaside stay with fireplace!
Romantic stay with my husband. The room was beautiful, and the fireplace added the perfect touch. Even though we faced the street, it was amazingly quiet through the night. Breakfast was delivered to our room and was such a treat to eat by the warm fireplace. We will definitely return!

Loved it here
The room was small but very cute and intimate. The view over looking the street was beautiful especially with all the holiday lights and music playing in the street. They served complimentary wine and cheese in the lobby between 4-6pm I believe.

Boutique Hotel with Fireplace and Firm Beds
Nice Boutique Hotel. Large room with sitting area and fireplace. Extra charge for parking which sucked. Bed was too firm. View of Cannery Row. It was loud until about 10:30 due to Sly Mc Flys and a "Christmas Parade" but quiet after that. I enjoyed the stay but Hubby's back was killing him in the morning.

We loved the daily 4:30 pm wine, cheese and crackers with delicious olives. Loved breakfast in the room daily, croissants, fresh fruit, cereal, hard boiled eggs and yogurt. Hotel needs some simple updating, caulking in bathroom, shelving for a microwave above mini fridge needed. Loved the sitting bench at the Bay window, watching seals, otters and even saw dolphins right from or room. Thank you we will visit again after some updating
