writes, "Their rooms are very cozy and
sunny with lots of stained glass. The bedroom was wicker, and the
bathroom was big enough for two with plenty of space for our clothes.
The kitchen was roomy and had the things you would need to cook,
but with so many wonderful
places to try-- why bother! We never take a car, so parking
was not an issue. The staff is very pleasant and helpful.
They gave us information about the bus
lines and with a $10 Muni pass for three days, we could go any
where we wanted. "

writes, The building is very cozy
and we felt safe and comfortable. We wondered "Why can't
we stay here for our entire trip?" We liked it and the
staff was very nice. The building is a 3-Story Victorian and
has a lot of charm. It is more quaint than elegant and has
a lot of stained glass throughout the Inn. Our room was away
from the street (less noise) and was small, but cozy. The
inn seemed in appearance to have been recently refurbished and the
carpeting seemed relatively new. Our room was pleasantly decorated
(wicker and brass bed) and the bathroom was relatively large and
all of the fixtures were new but were styled to keep the "Victorian
Inn" effect going. The Inn was very clean and pleasant.
It's not the Ritz, but we weren't looking for that either.
Breakfast is continental (bagels-yum, juice and coffee) and it is
"self-served" in a cute little parlor area. The
best way to sum up the the Edward II Inn would be to call it, "Petite
and Cute".

from New Jersey agrees, "We stayed
at the Edward II B&B from Feb 18-21 of this year. We were
thrilled with the place. The location is great. They
have just a few reserved parking spaces on-site. However,
a parking lot across Lombard usually has space available.
The room we had was charming. It was not one of their expensive
suites, but it still had plenty of room. The bathroom
especially was cavernous and beautifully decorated.
Their breakfast was much more than we expected - "continental
breakfast" is typically a roll and coffee, but the spread
they had for guests included wonderful pastries, bagels, toppings,
muffins, juices - it was a huge meal. We were delighted
with the atmosphere at the Edward II, the staff was friendly,
everything was tidy and very pleasant. We highly recommend
this B&B."

But
the Edward II's service is not always roses (R.D.
), "The Edward II B & B has some serious
service issues. They overbooked their reserved parking spaces
across the street, and on our second evening there we got a very
rude phone call demanding that we move our car, despite the fact
that we had reserved the spot for the duration of our 2 night stay.
Apparently, they had only written our reservation in their book
for 1 day (an honest mistake). What upset us was the fact
that the clerk kept arguing with us, and made us feel like WE had
done something wrong. Even after we produced the written proof
that we had the space reserved, we never got an apology.
Our check-out took almost 45 minutes, because they only had 1 person
working, and the line was out the door. The place was clean (although
the rooms were tiny), and the breakfast was good, but we would never
stay there again, due to the poor service."
