"You cannot park on the street overnight, as there is nightly street cleaning. Try park on the side streets like Sanchez, (be very careful reading the signs), and walk over. Bathroom and shower are down the hallway. For other people it is inconvenient but it is fine with us. They do have a vanity in the room. They do have rooms down the hall that can be less noisy. We were given the room facing the Market street. The famous Streetcar and street cleaning vehicle, you can imagine."
