Best Western Tradewinds

The exterior looks like an average motel but the room was quite upscale. The bed, linens and bathroom were high quality and very comfortable. They offer the usual Best Western breakfast which offers a variety of options, hot or cold. The breakfast area is very small but they do offer trays if you want to take your breakfast to your room. The front desk staff were all very pleasant and friendly. The proximity of the hotel to the many restaurants along the Embarcadero makes it a very convenient location. less

Two things I require in a hotel room are clean and a comfortable bed. This hotel met both of these expectations. I usually bring my own pillows in case I don’t like the pillows. But I loved the pillows and didn’t have to use mine. The property is very clean and well kept. I even saw the manager sweeping the parking lot in the morning. I was a little disappointed that breakfast didn’t start before 7:30 but they lady who checked us in offered to put together a “to go” bag for us. It contained yogurt, sweet roll, and a banana. The coffee in the room was pretty good. We have stayed here before and we will come back because it’s clean the beds are comfortable and it’s very close to the Embarkadero. less

BW Tradewinds is conveniently located, very clean, with nicely appointed rooms of the basic Best Western style. The staff was pleasant and helpful. Continental breakfast was basic but everything was fresh (waffles, cereals, breads and muffins, fresh fruit, hard-boiled eggs, etc). It's not a "resort" type of place -- no gym, no conference room, no swimming pool -- just a small, classic, comfortable, and quiet place to sleep after a day exploring the central coast. It's our first choice when visiting the region. less

We made an unexpected last minute stop and we got the last room. We were pleasantly surprised by the staff and location. Room was clean and had a view of Morro Rock. Would recommend to family and friends. less

Our requirements are clean, quiet and comfortable. We do NOT use spas, gyms etc since we want to experience the area and environment, not the hotel. I am a wildlife photographer so factor that in. The continental breakfast was typical but tasty and filling. The location, away from the hysteria of tourist traffic downtown yet close enough for visit to Fisheman's Wharf etc. was perfect. less
