Nice hotel in a not so nice location
The title says it all. The location is by no means "bad", but there are better. Being on the edge of the Tenderloin District doesn't help things. That being said, parking is secure in a garage below the hotel, and the rooms were clean. The hot water took about 8-10 minutes to reach the shower head, with the sink and the shower on full hot. The staff was friendly and helpful.

meeting in SF
Nice old SF hotel to stay for 3 d meeting. Aging a bit. Staff accommodated me when I requested a room away from the main street. QUIET with good double pane windows. Good bed but I prefer feather pillow. garage on site a little pricey but convenient. Light continential breakfast OK. Theater and many small restaurants near. Great value.

old style
Expect the best staff you ever met, a good breakfast and you are right near union square. They do try their best to keep it all nice, but it is an older hotel at it shows here and there. But that also has its charm

New Year's
Hotel was nice, clean, quiet. Located just two miles from Pier 39, parking averaged around 30$ though. But AMC theater was next door, along with some diners and cafes. :) overall a nice stay.

Not Great!!!
Except the location nothing else was good. The queen size bed was really small. The rooms are small. Dont bother about the continental breakfast.

Great location for the price
Hotel is located on Van Ness and Geary...not a great place in the city, but easy to get to everything else by cab. Reasonable parking located just next door on O'Farrell Street. Staff very friendly. Room was very clean, but very small, although they do have larger rooms. For the price this hotel is hard to beat. I will stay there again in the future.

Spring Break
Great stay. The staff were excellent and very helpful. I would stay here again. The only problem I would say is the location of the hotel was not the best.
