Great location, shopping, eats, BART within a few minutes. Visit the PCH bar next door starting at 5p…fantastic vibe and cocktails. SMALL but Nicely appointed rooms, great linens and comfy bed. Storage could be better, armoire wasn’t enough and lacked lighting. Ice bags made for a makeshift bucket in the sink for drinks and champagne.
