Michelle Bui
I got a good price by booking directly and got the package with parking included. Otherwise, parking would be $42/night. Just check the invoice after you check out and make sure that they did not charge the parking fee. If they did, no big deal. The refund process is quick and easy since I booked directly. Breakfast options were the same for the 2 days that we were there. It was good and eno...

Its a great place to stay, easy walking to the piers the train station food shops. We walked to all locations our longest walk was 35min home from pier 70 one evening but was a beautiful walk. Road noise was a little high however after the first night I didn't hear it. Staff friendly breakfast was very good overall great spot to stay. I would book again, also best pizza in town next door.

The room was set up great, the shower wasn't clean there was black curly hair on the shower wall. Worst of all, if you're not moving around in the room, like when you're sleeping the AC stops (energy efficiency is great) but not when it's hot outside and you're not moving because you're sleeping. The staff were all friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The location off the freeway with traffic is sure...
