衞生條件不好，睡完癢癢的。注意酒店不是封閉式的，我知道可能有點難理解，就是行人可以直接來敲客房的門。然後晚上確實被流浪漢擰房門了，嚇了一跳。

I checked into this hotel on Friday, so the price was 2,300, which is twice as expensive as usual. It is considered a motel in general. The decoration is American-style and parking is free. Some people have rated the breakfast very well, but I think it is very average. It only has some bread and cold boiled eggs. There is a tofu and vegetable snack. There is no bacon, sausage, or vegetables. The fruit is cantaloupe, which is quite disappointing. If around 1,000 is acceptable, then the service is considered normal.

We have just spent two nights here on the way to LA. One of our last stops on our tour of the West Coast. We have stayed at many different types of hotel along the way and this was one of the lower budget ones but we were very pleasantly surprised with how lovely it was. The room was a little dated but very clean and not small. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and we had the pool to ourselves both days. We made use of the free bikes and really enjoyed our day exploring SB and the free wine/cheese/cookies/coffee were a lovely touch. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend.

This was a great hotel / this was stop number 3 from San Francisco and without doubt the best place we have stayed. Staff was super friendly and the food / wine and bike hire was an added bonus - would recommend. Would definitely stay again should we come to Cali again.

This hotel is a gem. Drive by it and you may not think much of it but the rooms are nice, lovely area to have drinks before spending the night out in town. Walking distance to all the main attractions. Clean, safe and comfortable. Staff was really helpful at checking.
