Andrews Hotel

This hotel had a wonderful overall atmosphere, and delivered on every promise made on the website. The continental breakfast included great fresh pastries, fresh fruit, orange juice, and hot coffee. Overall much better spread that I would have expected. In addition the free happy hour drinks were generous, and the staff was always helpful. The room was clean as well. The biggest drawbacks were the small size of the room, and the noise. It was never extremely loud, but the walls were thin, so you could easily hear other guests coming and going.

I did not stay...the neighborhood scared me away, a charge for parking...that was in the fine print..my mistake...try to get a refund....that was not going to happen.... the safety of my car was the main problem..the hotel is in the worst part of the city...bums and garbage everywhere...could not get refund because I did not cancel 40 hrs before... well I flew in and picked up rental car, then headed to hotel....Comfort Inn is couple miles away and has secure parking... Im afraid I will not be using Cheaptickets any more either....there are to many other booking agencies that protect the customer from stuff like this.

Two blocks off Union Square, this old (pre-earthquake) hotel retains the charm of an earlier era. A nice feature is the continental breakfast put out on each floor: juice, rolls, butter, jam, fruit, coffee, tea; put on tray and take to your room. There is wireless internet, but it broke down for over a day while I was there. There is no coffee maker in the room; there is coffee in the lobby at all times, but it is stale and hardly warm. The rooms are definitely on the small side. But great value and location. I've stayed there eight or ten times.

I was close to choosing some other hotels I had never been to or had confidence in their services. The Andrews came up as a last choice but the reviews were good. I hope this synopsis of my queen comfy room will help you. Let me start by saying that I would stay here again. Price Versus Comfort are excellent. 1. you will get a clean room, bath / shower, small flat screen television, dvd player, alarm clock, iron and hair dryer and ceiling fan. 2. The room is clean 3. The location is good for Union Square 4. THe complimentary Breakfast is good ( fresh fruit, breads, coffee and juice) 5. THe Fino Restaurant is great food and great staff 6. THe elevator is small and older with a retracting gate but it works and is quaint 7. THe stairwell from floor to floor is tight and steep so if you are older or physically challenged the elevator is your way 8. Easy to find off of Post street 9. Neighborhood is just fine THe one negative I had was an unexpected 50.00 a day deposit for the room charged upon arrival. I had not known about this and at a four day stay, this was 200.00 extra dollars I had to spend up front. You are credited during checkout but knowing about this earlier would have helped me prepare. If I come into a great amount of money then I would stay at the JW Marriott, Hyatt or Westin, but for a good price, in a good location you won't beat the Andrews. I will stay here again!!!

I loved it! Close to shopping, dining and bars. Hotel had that old charm feel, small room but that is what you get in San Fran.

This is not a luxury hotel or even a standard modern chain. The rooms are dated, though there have been attempts to update the decor. I spent 4 nights attending a conference in San Francisco. The room was clean, and since it was not on the street, it was very quiet. The bathroom was very tight. The toilet and tub/shower were too close together and the towels practically hung in your face as you used the toilet. I would not recommend the room for 2 people unless you were dedicated to saving money. But for one person, it was fine. The staff at the front desk was very helpful. The continental breakfast buffet was conveniently located on each floor.

After staying at some of the expensive hotels in Union Square we ran across the Andrews. The price was much better and they exceeded our expectations at every point. Breakfast, Wi-Fi, and evening wine were all included. The room was smaller than a new modern hotel but it was more than adequate. It was clean and comfortable for two people.

Excellent and very helpful staff. Great continental breakfast available on the floor where you're staying. Convenient location but neighborhood is sinking fast.

Andrews hotel was way better than I expected. The staff was very helpful in everything,they held our bags for the entire day after we checked out and went to roam the city. The continental breakfast was delicious,the pastries fresh and various.there was always water, fruit and tea in the lobby,also we could have a complimentary glass of wine in the hotel restaurant. The room was small,but convinient and honestly I expected it to ve way smaller and crammier. The con is thou that there was no Ac,bbut provided the weather we didnt need it at all. Overall the stay at Andrews was a pure pleasure,and the saved money was spent on other fun things instead on the chain expensive hotel.

The hotel is located in a very convenient location. It is far enough off Union Square that it isn't too touristy, but close enough that one can still enjoy all that Union Square offers. The hotel was clean and the staff friendly and helpful. We stayed in the "standard room." It was a good room for a couple, but would not work for anyone with children. Some may consider the rooms small as it was predominantly a room for the bed and a desk (with a small TV on top) and two chairs. But we only used the room for sleeping and were out during the day and parts of the evening. The closet and bathroom were a good size. Shower pressure was good. The only thing is the continental breakfast. If you don't get to it right when it comes out you may be out of luck. We tried to get the basket refilled, as the hotel instructed their guests to do, but was told that they had no more pastries, croissants, etc.
