"The LiA hotel is conveniently located near the San Carlos city center/walk street…parking in the courtyard is easy and usually available. Those are the good things. The bad things are that the walls are very thin and you can hear your neighbors and the people above you if you’re on ground level. We were there for a week and there was loud music most nights. Probably won’t be back. "

It was so nice to be able to just return to the room and chill out and then head back out to Boudin's for sourdough/clam chowder bowls! I would recommend this for families for sure. I did see it had a vending machines and it also had a refrigerator in the room (where we kept our soda). "

"The room with a kitchen efficiency was a great price. I like that the kitchen box is in the room and ready for you, and the staff repacks the box. Unlike other places, you don't have to go back to the front desk to get your kitchen supplies. Would be nice if it included dish soap. Cigerette butts all around building entrances. Each floor has large trash containers at the end of the hallways, and often times would smell. Ice machine in my building broken during most of my 11 day stay. Sheets...

"Howard is a great host. Left us a list of nearby restaurants and services. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe. Very walkable. I probably would not say there was a kitchen in the unit. It was more like a kitchenette. But overall we really enjoyed our stay!"
