We stopped here for an overnight before our cruise. Nothing fancy but adequate. The room was clean and the bed was good. Had to run the hot water for a bit because it appeared rusty, but it did clear.

It’s not the fanciest place in SF but it is clean and safe. The fresh pastries and coffee were excellent. The car park across the street was easy to use and convenient. The staff was kind and helpful. It’s near several excellent restaurants and a little walk to the waterfront.

I had a confirmed reservation - came in early in the morning and the room wasn’t ready. Checked in at 5 pm and they said hotel is full and off loaded me to another hotel few blocks away!!! That’s bad. The staff didn’t even explain why they gave my room away- just as a matter of fact told me to go to another hotel with address on a post it note !!!!

Just ok
Passable for one night, last minute. Decent for the price, but wouldn't jump to stay there again. Hotel is older and the room was clean but bare bones. Walls are very thin so I was woken up at 3am by another guest yelling on their phone. Front desk person was nice though.

The hotel is in a good location, although the climb up the hill to it is steep. It’s close to cable car stops and within 10 min walk to BART train station on Powell st for trains to/from the airport .Union Square is very close by. The hotel itself is basic but clean, with daily clean towels if needed. There are tea and coffee facilities at reception as well as a microwave, computer and ice/water machine. Staff were friendly and accommodating. It was quiet at night and the bed was very comfy. I would definitely stay again .

A great no frills spot in an excellent location,parking was a good deal/price with the garage accross the street. Best bargain in this part of the city. I walked and rode Muni buses everywhere I wanted to go. But beware the incline getting back up Powel, if it's too much for you grab the Muni or a cable car. Nothing fancy, but super friendly and helpful staff, clean, comfortable and safe. Walk to so many great food and drink options. I will be recommending the Grant for my budget travel friends. If you want a room with a view prepare to pay three times their price, or more. If you plan to explore the city and need a quiet place to sleep - Hotel Grant is your best bet.

The hotel is has an excellent location but they can improve in the cleaning, found more than three long hairs in the bathroom and the room smells weird. Overall it was ok for the price.

Great location and well maintained with fair price
So this isn't a super modern chain place like we often stay when traveling, but it's a great option in San Francisco. It is an older place but was very clean and well maintained. My first impression was that it was like something you might find in Europe, and then I discovered that pretty much all of my fellow guests actually were European! The breakfast pastries were fresh daily. There was an ice and water machine in the lobby. The location was very convenient for reaching a lot of the areas we wanted to visit by either foot or public transportation. We absolutely would stay here again if we needed to stay in San Francisco. My only complaint is that there wasn't nearly enough seating for breakfast in the mornings... But the lobby area is small, so there's probably not much help for that.

If you are looking at this hotel, there is only one reason to consider it: the price. It is one of the few budget hotels on the area. It isn't totally awful, but there are things they could do better. My biggest complaint is the bed: it felt sleeping on a sheet of plywood. I stayed in 5 hotels/motels during my trip to California and this was the very worst bed. If the owners could replace the mattresses, this might make for an OK place to stay. I will probably look for a different hotel on my next San Fran visit. It is up a very steep climb a few blocks from Chinatown - but most of San Francisco is quite hilly. I wear earplugs when I sleep. There wasn't street noise, but you can hear noise like people walking about if you are on a lower floor. In the morning they offer pastries, that look like the type sold bulk at many big box retailers. They have one pod coffee machine that guests have to line up at to make individual cups of coffee. I don’t know why they don’t just get a large coffee urn which would make better coffee & be more convenient. The rooms are serviceable and kept clean, with daily housekeeping - but they are pretty beat up. The washroom seemed renovated & was good.

Property was a reasonable price and clean and tidy. We didn't feel unsafe but didn't go out at night. Close to tram stops and an uphill walk from Union Square. Close to China Town. We weren’t quite prepared for the brick wall view and it would have been helpful if staff were more informed or had information available on the cost of the transport cards available and where to get them from. Some include the Bart some don't.

A very nice hotel in a good area of San Francisco. The staff were very nice, the room was large & the bathroom had everything needed for a pleasant stay. Coffee & water were available 24/7 & a selection of pastries were also available in the mornings, all for free. I couldn't have wished for a better 4 night stay.

Great stay, would recommend
The rooms/hotel are quite outdated but my room was clean and comfortable and the staff were very friendly/helpful. Breakfast was provided but the croissants were not good and there was no milk but I didn't even realise breakfast was included so this didn't affect my stay. I'd definitely stay again - good value for money.

Generally there were two complaints: The carpeting was very badly stained; so much so, I slept on the other side of the bed because it was less stained on that side. The bed was clearly inferior as well.
