Not worth the money. Rooms are big with big beds, but that’s the extent of the niceness. This hotel really is ok, but it is NOT worth the money. Over $1k for 4 nights. Also, parking is an additional $65 a NIGHT, which is crazy. They also charge extra for Wi-Fi but say “it’s included.” With the money spent, likely could have stayed in a nicer area and in a nicer hotel. I’d look elsewhere.

Pay enough to stay here and they charge almost $100 a night for parking! The rooms were just mediocre. Better places in the area to stay at. Next time I will choose a different location.

Fantastic location if you are.looking to be in the heart of the tourist destination. Hotel is close to the cable cars and all transit lines (BART, MUNI). Heated pool located on site. Attentive hotel staff. Property is a little dated however rooms are incredibly clean. We stayed in a premium king room, very spacious and had a patio. Guest rooms have a mini fridge, coffee maker, safe and use of bathrobes. As it is a downtown property, can get noisy. There is homelessness in the area, however did not experience any type of aggressive panhandling or felt unsafe. If we return to San Francisco, will likely stay again at this property.

Everything was really good overall, the hotel is just older and it feels that way when you're inside. Room was a little warm overall for sleep but opening the sliding doors cooled it down quickly. Could help if they included screens.

Once grand hotel and still pretty good. Near the downtown center of Union Square, but also blocks away from open drug use and squalid homelessness. San Francisco needs to get its act together or risk losing tourism altogether.
