The property is in an ideal centralized location, but the surrounding area, which is out of the hotels control, is very seedy. There were domestic disputes that we could hear. It's too bad the area is so ghetto.

Sure they have hourly and weekly rates, that kind of place. Staff was nice enough, and when I left at 5am believe I saw 24 hour security, which was reassuring, but next time I'll stay a bit further off the highway, probably in Mill Valley.
