Monterey Vista Packages (Flight + Hotel)

This hotel is a block away from city hall, civic center plaza and other gorgeous buildings. We were within walking distance to bus stops, Bart stations and other local transit. We did not want to be in heart of tourist area and this was perfect. We loved that we could walk to local restaurants, cafes & bakeries, because of the proximity to government buildings, many places close by 8pm. As long as you are aware of that, its a good place to stay. I think people forget that San Fran is an old city with old buildings (thats the charm). I like that those buildings are repurposed, (hotels, shops, restaurants) and are not completely gutted to make them look brand new (if you want something new, gray and boring, stay somewhere else). I like that the hotel bathroom had the old tiles, small elevator and people were friendly and helpful.This hotel is cute, roomy and simple, we slept & kept our stuff there. There is no A/C, but you dont need it (visited in August from AZ) we kept the window open and at 3am it was really cold.

Very comfy and good location. The breakfast is really good. The wifi is really bad though so if you are willing to do any online call or work you'd better find another alternative. I think they need to improve it.

Quiet hotel, abundant parking

No microwave or a/c and heating in room

We enjoyed our stay. The room was clean and spacious. The bed was comfortable. The staff were friendly. And there are some good dining options within walking distance. Along with a Walgreens and coffee options. The parking was tight, as in you need to be able to maneuver i and out of the spaces. Though, it is free. Which is hard to find in San Francisco.
