the hotel location provided easy access to union street and nearby restaurants. the room was surprisingly quiet, especially given its proximity to the harbor. the walk-in shower was quite decent and the bed offered a comfortable night's sleep. i found the staff helpful with a request!

the payment process for parking wasn't explained upon my arrival. it could have been clearer. a mirror where i could sit to do hair and makeup would have been useful.
