Overall stay was ok - would not return though. Room was pretty rough. Bathtub was really dirty and room could’ve used a deep clean. Pillow cases and linens were threadbare and had some holes.

Breakfast was not really worth it and random. One day was eggs, beef taquitos and mozzarella sticks …? Coffee was watery.

Pros - location was good for walking over to the Embarcadero. Staff was cordial if not overly helpful.

This motel was clean, comfy beds, great walking distance to the Embarcadero & had a lovely continental breakfast. The staff was friendly and efficient. Would definitely stay here again and recommend! Great place to stay if you are going on a fishing charter as well because close walking distance to the dock.

Standard motel. Great views. We had room 204 which has a great view of the rock. They have a deck but no pool. Rooms are small. Bathroom is aged. Breakfast was amazing! Muffins from a bakery in San Luis Obispo, yogurt, eggs, sausage, pancakes, bread. Better than I expected. Laura at the front desk worked hard to keep up with the food consumption. She was friendly and helpful.

well, the staff members wee somewhat useless. When I checked in I was asked to provide my email. I said I didnt want to but staff members said its needed to register me and said there is no way I would get marketing emails. I had no choice but to provide my email. Next thing I know I am receiving marketing communication from this hotel several tmes a day. Obviously staff misreoresnted what the email would be used for and I assume illegal for them to say I need to provide it to regster. When I was trying to grab breakfast staff member assiting in the kitchen couldnt assist with finding hot water. Again, small but it really detriorates your experience.

One staff member was extremely rude. The other staff member who was new. It was very nice treated very poorly upon check-in clearly has a dislike for third-party use. My reservation request was for the first floor because we had bikes on my reservation and it said I had room 111. Upon check-in we asked for the first floor she said it cannot be guaranteed and we were given the second floor and had to take our bikes up the stairs. She was also extremely rude to all of my friends that checked in I would not recommend this place.

Well, the hotel had a plumbing issue. The hotel called us multiple times, asking when we will be checking in, didn't mention about the plumbing issue, and no room available until we asked why they were calling the third time. They relocated us across the street, saying that it is the same 3-star hotel, and 2 queen beds. When we checked in to the new hotel, turns out to be a 2-star, and only has 1 king bed, and a twin cot (with mattress so horrible that we can feel the spring). This is horrible the way they handled this. I understand that the situation is unavoidable, but they should have been honest about the new place, and offer some refund due to the differences. But none of that happened.

Had some issues with our stay. After our first night, we left our room to go out for the day. My husband had gone back and found that all our things were gone (weirdly the room key still worked). So my husband went to the office to find out what was going on. The guy who checked us in on our first night quit so at first there was no record of us being there. (They found the paper proving we checked in later.) I guess they thought that the previous person who stayed in that room left and forgot their things (something along those lines). Someone that worked there went into our room, shoved all our stuff into our suitcases, threw away our snacks, water bottle, my leftover coffee and our shower supplies. They stuck our suitcases in a janitors closet. My husband got our suitcases back and they gave him the same room again. The girl at the desk said she got it figured out and we are good to go but, later she called me to tell us that our reservation for that day was canceled and gave me a cancellation confirmation number supposedly from Expedia. We did not cancel our room! I looked on my Expedia app and there were no notifications of cancellation. She also told me they did not get paid from Expedia or some thing like that and that we owed them money. I booked this whole trip on Expedia and it was completely paid for. We called Expedia, explained everything and they took care of it. Side note, the desk girl was very nice and tried to be very helpful to us.

An utter disappointment. Felt ripped off for the price. The room was dirty upon my arrival, was dingy and also smelled musty. The room wasn’t even properly equipped, missing a complete set of towels, even missing some pillows. There was still something sticky on the nightstand, gross. Also, paper thin walls, we could hear everything…from neighbors talking, watching tv, and even flushing toilet. The HVAC was super noisy and we were forced to keep the loud HVAC fan on all night to try to get some sleep. Sadly wasn’t able to sleep much, and ended up leaving before 5am. Management doesn’t care, didn’t even offer to remedy any of it. I even received a call from a rude manager who was attempting to defend this dirty old hotel, then later received a tacky AI generated fake apology; yes we can tell your using AI. I wound NEVER stay here again, nor would recommend. This place is an over-priced Motel 6, and is a pathetic excuse for the BW name.

The stars are for location, which was very convenient - walking distance to nearest attractions. Besides that, the room and amenities were subpar for the price and the name. I paid extra for the “bay view” room but there was no bay view at all. Bedding was ok except for the squeaky metal box springs. Furniture was old. Walls are not sound proof so we couldn’t sleep well the first night due to noise in the next room. Bathroom was ok but putting coffee maker in the bathroom is not tasteful. Shampoo etc were empty. The breakfast which some reviews appear to praise was pretty basic. The staff at the reception were courteous.

When we checked in we were told our room wouldn’t be ready for 2 hours. The guest that stayed in the room before us had broken the toilet. We were offered another room with 2 queen beds. The heater in the room had to be turned on and off outside of the room which was annoying. We never got to try the breakfast. We were not informed of a time and we were not given any info of our stay. The lady at the front desk made us feel like we were bothering her. Every time we would leave our room we would have to go the office to reactivate our key card. The lady in the office did say to keep card away from our cell phones which we did and the card would still need to be reactivated. Overall we had a decent stay but I don’t think we will stay at this hotel again,

Having stayed at this location many times in early 2000's and had the most amazing stays, I did not think to read the current reviews. I should have! The new owner has zero skills in hospitality. She was rude and unwelcoming the minute we walked in. Very unprofessional and downright evil as many prior reviews described her. We left after one night because we didn't not feel safe . Also be leery of giving your credit card information as I had fraudulent charges, which required me to file a police report. I honestly can't believe Best Western is still associated with this property.

I never leave reviews(literally NEVER) but I have to for this.From the get go I knew it was going to be a DISASTER.

Upon arrival I noticed that the paper said 2adults while on the app it showed that I booked for 2 adults and 2 children.I had selected 2 beds and got 1.I asked if there were any rooms available with 2 beds and I would be ok with additional charges.
The lady at the front desk didn’t let me speak. Cut me off and said no,thank you bye.

Well awkward right? But what do you do at 7pm 5 hours away from home……Just gotta go with the flow.At that point I knew it was going to be a no sleep -tight in bed night but that’s ok! I was just very taken back by the customer service.

Well I go
Check in the room and notice the side table full of hairs…no biggie just wipe it with Clorox wipe….
Then shower is filthy ok gross
Coffee machine on bathroom sink full of dusk AND HAIRS….ok still pushing through.Late night,tired of traveling with baby and teen(if you know you know)

Okkkk it gets worse… pull of the sheets..THE ENTIRE BED IF FULL OF HAIRS THE FLOOR TOO! Hairs everywhere!!! I tried to see what could be done but again the customer service was not there.

Now I will say this…I have a strong intuition (teacher) that the person at the counter may be special needs (not a doctor just an assumption from experience)

So i decided that we were going to get NO WHERE because we just couldn’t communicate so i checked out within 40minutes. The room was beyond filthy.It was plain GROSS

The old woman who was on the front desk of the hotel when we checked in around 8-9pm was so rude. She snapped fingers at us. And when our AC was not working she asked us to fix it by ourselves and when we were going the same she came and spoke very rudely asking us to get out and all the curse words. You can see the CCTV’s for proof. By her behaviour it almost seemed like she was did drugs. Please do a background check prior to listing them in the website as it gives a bad name to your website as well. We also heard that she was probably the owner of the motel. Also, yes, it’s listed as a hotel but when in reality it’s just a motel.

Hollowing noise in the room, the high pitch dies away and comes back at intervals, which I identified later as a loud noise from the worked-down washing machine in the technical room. The Receptionist Lady, when asked, suggested that I turn up the TV and she'd see about the noise in an hour or so. Rude, but nothing compared to what happened next.
My wife turned the shower on, and at the same moment, a hose connecting the TOILET got disconnected, and started to spray the room, forming a huge paddle on the floor.
Luckily, there was a key on the water pipe coming out of the wall. I shut the water off, and my wife and the kid started to mop the water from the floor into the sink.
I went to the report the accident to The Recetionist Lady, who got agitated, did not wait until I finished my sentence and rushed to the room.
My wife opened the door, and when I came in The Receptionist Lady was already raising her voice in our general direction (my wife and son and me), repeating without stopping: \"you've ruined the room\", \"how did you break it?\", and something unintelligible about $700.
The Receptionist Lady then stormed out of the room, saying I need to follow her and get some rugs to mop the floor. To my repeated request to change the room, she started to repeat loudly: \"You've ruined one room already!\"
I followed her to the reception desk, where she did threw me some rags, and SLAMMED THE DOOR OF HER OFFICE IN MY FACE!
After which we packed and left to find another hotel.

Stayed 2 nights with 2 rooms — first room had carpet that was VERY dirty with questionable stains and smelled like a damp dog. Second room has been updated with laminate flooring and was much cleaner and nicer feeling. The first night both rooms had blazing hot water — yay! Second night and checkout morning there was absolutely no hot water in either room. We didn’t mention it since we were on our way out but honestly I’d consider other hotel options before choosing this one again.

The room and the onsite staff was fantastic, however there was an issue when we were getting ready to leave. We left in the morning to get breakfast and when we returned our room keys stopped working and we couldn't get into our room. There was no one at the front desk and there was a sign saying that it would be open at 7:30am, but it was already 9am. I called the customer service number and a lady answered. We called twice, once for the issue and another time for a follow up. In this time the housekeeper had arrived and was also locked out. She said she might be able to get us into our room and then successfully got the door open so I called back to let the lady know that the problem was solved but she was very rude. She told me the back up was on his way and then hung up before i could say the problem was solved.

When we got to the room, the bedding was unclean with brown marks that looked like make up, and sheets that were extremely wrinkled that it made you question if they were clean. One comforter had a major hole in it and the sheet tag was showing at the top of the bed when it should be at the bottom. Thankfully, the attendent gave us another room.
