Great location. Was able to walk to a festival we were attending at waterfront Park. Safe, lots of restaurants within walking distance. Only negative thing was that my boyfriend and I booked a shared queen bed and when we got there, we were told it was not available so we had to bunk in separate beds. When we called the owner, she gave us attitude and offered to cancel our reservation if we weren’t happy. Could definitely use some customer service skills. However, the staff at the desk were very nice.

The worst hotel I've ever been to. It smells like urine, the pillows are yellow from being dirty, they refused to give me a locker when others did, there are cameras in the rooms, they force you to sweep, there's no lighting in the common areas, the manager mistreats you, there's no privacy, and I don't recommend it for women. They robbed me and did nothing.

Would have gotten a better review if my check in process went smoothly. I let the agent know ahead of time that I will be checking in after midnight since I’m driving all the way from Fresno. She assured me that it was fine and she will take note for the staff. I get there and the office was closed, did not email me the code and the check in details like she said she would. I was there waiting for 30 minutes, ringging the door bell nonstop and calling the phone. This is my first time staying at a hostel so to have an experience like this is disappointing. The manager came finally, after talking to the other tenants outside I guess he heard us talking. He at least acted somewhat professionally. The place is not bad, the bed is soft, the blanket had some type of smell idk if its unwashed. If you are in the navy, this is somewhat close to the berthing expect it is larger that what you are used to. I just came back from deployment on the ship so to me its spacious not a 5 star hotel obviously but its not bad for the price.
