"Lovely premises. We enjoyed the clean, spacious room, common recreational spaces, fire pit, and breakfast. It was a relaxed and quiet stay. We at at Joe's restaurant right next door for dinner! It's a short 20 minute walk to the Manhattan beach! "

"The hotel's beat literary theme is fun. It's clean, quiet, in a safe neighborhood with a good (expensive) sushi bar around the corner and a diner down the street and a good coffee shop downstairs adjacent to the lobby. Bed is comfortable, TV is fine, and the price is usually reasonable. Cable cars and North Beach and Chinatown and City Center all within an easy wallk."
