Except for the protestors out in front of the hotel, the checkin process was good. Did not like the protesters starting at 7 am. Could hear them from the room. The towels were scratchy and not soft at all. Starbucks downstairs was closed. I'm assuming because of the protestors.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room had a nice view of the bay on the 23rd floor. The hotel and our room was very clean and well kept. The beds and pillows were confortable. Its in an ideal location across from Petco and the Gas Lamp quarter. We didnt have time to check out the pool but we plan to return at some point to enjoy the pool.

Would not recommend
It was not a good experience. I had chosen my room ahead of time using the hilton app. When we got there after 4pm we were told that the room wasn’t ready and that they had a different room for us. This new room was 10 floors down with a view overlooking an industrial area. Much different from the room I picked that was on the 30th floor overlooking the ocean. They also had a lot of issues with the elevators. Wait times to get on an elevator ranged from 10-20min and once you were on it, there was a good chance that it would stop on every single floor until you reached the lobby. Needless to say, we couldn’t book any ubers or order any food until we were at the lobby floor. Also, the pool area didn’t look anything like the pictures. Overall this stay was pretty terrible.

Price Gouging
I think charging a daily $45.00 for a resort fee and $45.00 for parking on top of an expensive room fee is annoying. I did not think it was worth staying there for the price. The resort fee is a new ploy to get extra money, even if people don't use the pool or gym.
