The hotel is great. Unbelievable views and easy access. Easy parking. Great restaurant with great view. Rooms where awesome, large, great showers and plenty of storage space. Only issue is the morning delivery trucks are not courteous to the guest. It's morning time, they should try to be less loud!!

We stayed in a marina view room. The bed was a little on the hard side but comfortable none-the-less. The views were beautiful, and other than a couple of kids being loud outside at 7am, it was very tranquil. The groups are well taken care of and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I recommend staying here!
Overall good stay. Wish the coffee in the lobby was longer hours. View was great. Was right off Mariana. Nice walking spot in the am. Got to enjoy coffee and watch some sea lions across the street.
The rooms felt like home. My daughter went on her first deployment and these rooms were cozy and large enough for us as a family to enjoy as we came to support her.
