Very Good

Rooms are great for the price , bed was very comfortable, clean rooms as well . The only downside is the parking , spaces are very small and seems like there’s not enough parking for the amount of rooms.
We have stayed at this hotel twice no for easy access to cannery row and since its right down the street at a affordable price its been great. The bed is pillow top comfortable and the room is well kept with some wear and tear of a 2-3 star hotel but better than other 2-3 star hotels weve seen.

Liked: Cleanliness
Sink was in the room making it impossible to brush teeth without waking others up. Otherwise, the room was clean.
Pleasant staff, seems to be newly renovated, comfortable bed, no icky carpeting, single story so no loud footsteps overhead, priced right and convenient location.
Excellent value and location! Just minutes from Cannery Row, clean, quiet, and comfortable. Front desk staff was super nice and there’s free coffee, tea, and biscoff in the office each morning.
It was really clean & staff was great. The only thing in our room was that the AC either wasn’t really working or when it turned on, it was really loud so we didn’t use it.
