My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were not as large or fancy as newer hotels, and my room on the first floor with a small balcony facing the parking lot, though non-smoking, reeked of smoke. However, the service was great despite some stress during check-in, and the staff went out of their way to ensure we got the room we wanted, even though they initially charged the wrong price. The location was overall really good value for the price in this area, albeit a bit small, and the dining experience, though adequate, was a bit limited. The hotel facilities were satisfactory, with a few minor issues to note.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms had a charming old rose color scheme with floral sheets, which gave them a cozy vibe. The housekeeping and maintenance staff were exceptional, ensuring everything was spotless and well-maintained. The room amenities like the microwave, coffee maker, and excellent water pressure were convenient; however, the non-functioning heater was a drawback.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms are spacious and conveniently located near the markets I wanted to visit, thanks to recent renovations with new carpets. However, having the conference room below did affect the overall quietness. The hotel offers easy access to various markets, making it a convenient choice for travelers.

My stay at this hotel had its highs and lows. On the positive side, the rooms have been recently remodeled with modern amenities, but they are on the smaller side for a hotel of this caliber. The service was friendly and accommodating, although there was an unfortunate incident involving missing jewelry. The location is convenient for accessing various local cities, but the noise levels can be disruptive. The dining options were not up to par, and the facilities were lacking in some areas despite a reasonable rate for the area.

The hotel is conveniently located near the 101 highway, making it a practical choice after long days of driving and working. While the rooms are dated, they are kept clean. The service from the desk clerks to housekeeping is extremely friendly, but there was a slip-up with a forgotten request. The dining options are not impressive and could be better if replaced. The hotel's location offers easy access to San Francisco and the surrounding areas, although it doesn't blend in with the town's vibe. The facilities are average, lacking standout features.
