Beds were horrible - very uncomfortable and there's way too much noise in the area. They kept moving dumpsters at the building next door, which kept waking us up. Never staying there again!

the staff was super nice and room service was always punctual. i definitely enjoyed my stay. only downside ,but not the hotels fault, was the area it’s in. between tenderloin and financial district aka downtown which isn’t the safest area. hotel locks it’s doors in the night but also keeps its guests safe with key cards to access the lobby door, the elevator, and your room. without a keycard, there is no access. the little convenience store in the lobby was in fact convenient when i didn’t want to walk to the nearby cvs. it was slightly expensive i would say though. overall though i had a satisfactory stay and the total cost was very affordable !

We stayed for 5 days at the hotel, the location is good, breakfast included was a plus, very close to a Wallgreens, which was convenient and very close to bart and bus stops....makes it a solid choice for a short stay in the SF bay area. I only wished the rooms were bigger, not much space to walk around the bed and hardly any sunlight coming in from the small window. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.

Great location, close to shops and restaurants. The only thing wrong was the bathroom door was frosted glass which was awkward with our two teenage children sharing the room with us
