The only reason I’m giving it 3 stars is for the comfy bed. The lack of parking and the accessibility was bad. But I guess it’s San Francisco. Access to lobby from parking was not ideal for me. Parking was very poor. If I would have known this I wouldn’t have stayed there. The bathroom shower head splashed water everywhere even the toilet and floor. The staff checking in were clear as to parking and lobby access to get to my room. I don’t think I will stay here again

Location was perfect for activities near the pier and ferry rides. The area felt safe. Lots of places to eat including one restaurant right in the hotel and others in the same building. The room was small but perfect for solo travel and clean. Shower head had great pressure. Also had a larger than normal fridge and a filtered water refill station in the lobby. The luggage storage was convenient and allowed me to venture out into the city to kill time before my evening flight. There were no windows my room, so rent a room with a view of you don’t like to feel claustrophobic. That would have been the 5th star. Otherwise great stay.

A very mixed experience. Rooms good for price - slept well - but most guests may want different pillows than the super firm and huge that are their standard. Because my review time is limited I’ll get to the point - while a few of the front desk staff were great (Sammy and Glady - not sure of spelling) several others not good at all. No one seemed to work longer than a few hours, several were curt and made no effort to be helpful or provided wrong info. Example: it was raining so I asked front desk if they might have umbrellas and was told no. In fact each room has an umbrella, but I was just checking in and didn’t find umbrella until after I needed it . Staff should known this Worse was rudeness - about 10.30 on Feb 12 I asked front desk man about travel to airport and was told to look up on Internet myself All I can say is that at most hotels certain questions come up every day and front desk should offer some assistance - perhaps with caveats for some uncertainties. A travel tip.- the $25 amenity fee gets you stale croissants if you come at say 9am because they don’t replenish after first setting out. Lastly I note for anyone who likes to swim laps - there is a fantastic 25 meter pool. This alone would make me go back - but knowing that there are some problems that the hotel could fix without even spending much money - care in hiring staff, some training, freshen up the breakfast pastries etc.

Location! Location! One block from the water, easy to walk to the ferry building and up and down the waterfront. I stay here quite a bit. The rooms are always immaculate. The beds are comfortable. The water pressure in the shower is good. But most of all the staff is always very pleasant to deal with.

Room was nice, quiet, and well-equipped, but coffee maker didn’t work. Coffee during breakfast wasn’t great either. Poor quality pastries. The bar downstairs is great and the hotel was the perfect location for exploring the waterfront.

Our room was very clean and comfortable! Staff were super nice and helpful too, and the location was fabulous. I wish we'd had more time to make full use of amenities like the gym. The only things I'd like to see to make this a perfect spot are a microwave in the room (but yay for the fridge!) and a wider range of complimentary breakfast options. Thanks Hotel Griffon!
