Ciye Hotel — Hotel in San Francisco

Many of the negative reviews I read before booking were accurate. The hotel location is a short walk from the beach, but on the main street. Which means LOUD noise at night. Knowing this is problem, the hotel provides ear plugs - which are not sufficient to block the noise (but thankfully places shut down by 11 pm). ||For the HIGH PRICE, you get little in return: you're paying a lot for minimalist design. There's a fridge in the room, but no coffee maker (for over $300 a night this should be provided); I did not see a hair dryer (you'd expect at these prices); the bed was comfy but the pillows are hard foam rocks (you'd expect down pillows when you're paying Hilton prices). And the "breakfast" is a joke: a croisante, jam, butter, juice, tea or coffee.||I had chosen the hotel because it had a rooftop pool but it was disappointing: it is not heated, and was too cold to swim. Plus they constantly had music playing which I found distracting and not relaxing at all. It was impossible to chill and just read a book with the music always playing. I would have preferred to hear the ocean waves. I wished they would stop playing music during the day perhaps only at happy house or maybe in the evening.||The best part of the hotel is the jacuzzi. You could only really see the ocean from the jacuzzi (not the pool), because it is elevated. It had the best view. But really it was not worth paying over $300 a night for it. And there is no advantage in being "close to the beach" because the town is so small that every place is close enough. |Save your cash and stay...

We recently had an amazing 7 night stay at Ciye Hotel! The staff were all very warm, welcoming, and helpful in providing us with whatever extras we needed and with recommendations for everything. The rooftop pool, with loungers and bar, is absolutely beautiful! It was very quiet there the whole time and so it felt nice to have the extra space. We used the bikes a couple of times, and they were very comfortable and fun to ride around on. However, the location of the hotel is optimal, in the centre of town, and mere steps from the beach, so we didn't need to travel much distance by foot or bike to get anywhere. Since we booked directly through the hotel, our stay included coffee, juice, and scones in the morning, which were all excellent. The food was provided through the restaurant attached to the hotel, and so there were convenient and delicious options for bigger breakfasts, which we opted for a few of the days. The room was clean, comfortable, and spacious, though we found the bed a bit hard (but that's personal preference.) All in all, we would highly recommend this hotel if you are planning to visit and stay...

I had a wonderful stay at San Pancho Ciye Hotel. The hotel itself was great—clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff were incredibly nice and friendly, always making sure we had everything we needed.

However, the location can be a bit of a challenge, as there was quite a bit of noise coming from nearby bars and restaurants. During my stay, there was a loud party that lasted until 3 AM, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep. If you're sensitive to noise, this could be an issue.

Other than that, everything else was perfect. The hotel provides a cozy, relaxing environment, and the service was top-notch. I’d definitely recommend this hotel for those looking for a great stay in San Pancho—just be prepared for some noise if you're staying near...
