The room was spacious and clean! Bedding was very nice and comfortable. The location was central and close to the Opera House which was the reason for our visit. We did have a hard time finding a restaurant close by after the performance and ended up eating next door to the hotel at Mel's. Not exactly a meal to remember but it honestly wasn't bad. Parking garage was very convenient and dare I say affordable at $49 with in/out priledges. I would definitely stay at the Courtyard location again!

In the Tenderloin district, which does not feel so comfortable and/or safe. Hotel Parking was full so we had to park in a public parking garage over a block away which was super inconvenient when you have a bunch of luggage to carry inside, especially in that kind of environment. Staff was nice but seemed overwhelmed and underpaid, poor guy. Price = quality in SF.
