"A nicely located hotel/motel with a view of the Bay for every room, as far as I know. Reasonable prices, mediocre breakfast; the one thing I really wanted was a screen in the sliding glass door so that I could enjoy the air coming from the bay. It's easy to guess that these oversized screens were broken again and again and management finally gave up. I would still like a solution to that problem."
