Leisel

Excellent staff, kind and professional and helpful especially when I had a challenging situation with unfortunate illness during our stay. Our room was comfortable and clean. For a 2 star property, this punched above its weight. The location is really optimal for harbor activities ~ just a few blocks to walk to USS Midway, Maritime Museum, and public transit. This property is largely well maintained, with just a few opportunities for updates (for one, damage to a baseboard surrounding the check-in desk could be repaired for a stronger first impression). The complimentary hot beverage maker in the lobby was a great touch! The pool was a lovely space, but temp was a bit cold for outdoors in January. The hot tub felt awesome! Grateful for our stay here!

I want to give a shout out to the hotel staff (especially Jovan) for accommodating our room requests on the spot. My friend and I booked our stays separately and we wanted rooms near each other, and they were able to accommodate this request. They were very patient and professional in helping us and we really appreciated that!
