Close to The Cow Palace and a cheap Uber ride. Nothing spectacular around, but conveniences within walking distance including a nice restaurant across the street and a pool hall sitting atop a flight of stairs.

Felt unsafe due to a guy roaming the area throughout the day and night. Felt uneasy - ended up going to airport at 4am. Felt safer than staying at the hotel.

Older building with old sheets, bed covers and carpet. Feels like everything is from the 1970s but not in a good way.
