It’s got a cute concept/theme but it is really dingy and needs painting and updating. Some vending machines on the floor would help as well. I am surprised at how unkempt the rooms are despite the cost. The maid service did an excellent job.

Maritime themed. Large game room. Outdoor fire pit for smores. Next to ihop. Fisherman 's Wharf and Pier 39 within walking distance. Our grandkids, 13 and 8 years old, had a blast.

Pros (+) Great location, decent price for the area.
Cons (-) We paid extra for a king size bed and were put into a double size MURPHY bed! What a joke, we were so uncomfortable all night and the bed sloped downward toward the head of the bed so the blood was rushing to our head while we slept. Worst night of sleep ever and they had overbooked their hotel so they couldn't move us! I will not be staying there again!

Pros (+) Short walk to the pier and other attractions. Near grocery store and the game room has family style tables so you can bring food in rather than dine out if you’re with a group.
Cons (-) 1. $$ To park 2. Need to step up their maintenance/housekeeping practices 3. Courtyard is a great idea but needs a refresh.

Pros (+) Our stay at Hotel Zephyr was great! We booked a King Bed w/ balcony room for two nights and had absolutely no complains! Our balcony was waterfront and faced the fisherman's wharf as well as had a direct view of Alcatraz. The room was very clean, spacious, and had all the amenities we needed. The staff at the hotel were all very helpful as well as provided us with coupons for restaurants and activ...
Cons (-) There really weren't hardly any complains about hotel Zephyr minus a few small ammenities. We would've liked to have had a microwave in our room but it wasn't really an inconvenience anyhow. The gym was a little small and could've used some more equipment but again, wasn't a big inconvenience at all.
