Staff was terrible. There is no ac or cooling system. No fresh linen. Had to wait 30 minutes to check in because there was no staff at the front. The shower was tiny and didn’t look clean. The bathroom floor tile was dirty. Parking is $30 a night.

We rented 2 room on our stay and both rooms feels neglected. The carpet looks like it was never shampooed for years. The TV remotes don't work, we have to change the channel from the DirecTv box. I understand that this is an old hotel so patches on walls old bathroom tubs are expected but they should at least clean the carpet.as that is the first thing you see when you enter the room. The room only have an old heater but no AC so the room feels muggy. We have to open the window to get fresh air but you can't leave it open at night because you can hear the homeless people outside shouting. I can't imagine staying her during summer. I gave it 2 stars because the front counter person is nice and the parking is gated so it feels safe. Also, it is the cheapest I found in the area. But if you want a comfortable place to sleep, I would find a different hotel.Maybe drive 7 to 10 miles out and get a nicer hotel with free parking for about the same price as this one.

The Embassy is an older hotel, but my room was clean and the staff were very friendly. Unfortunately, it was unseasonably cold in SF during my stay and the heating did not work in my room. The staff sent a technician and did offer to change my room the second evening. It was well worth the price though.

It's an old hotel, but it's clean and comfortable. That's good enough for my family of 6. We did a weekend getaway to the north side in Cali during December 2025. Although, the weather was cold the rooms were warm and comfy. The convenient parking was $30 per night. Do note that when you walk out of the hotel and you head to the left you will see the beautiful Civic Center Plaza and other wonderful things around there. It's at a walking distance. However, if you walk to the right to grab something to eat you might encounter homeless people. They don't harm anybody, but just needed to let you know. Overall, it's a fair place to stay.

I checked in for my two night stay but didn’t stay even 15 minutes. It was sketchy from the jump; stunk and felt dated and dirty. That was just the lobby. After I rode the scary elevator to my floor, got out and walked down a dark hallway where I heard screaming/chaos from not one but two rooms I entered my room, that somehow smelled WORSE than the lobby - ripped dirty carpet, no covers on the outlets, filthy chair, bed with just a sheet on it, a mirror so filthy I could barely see my reflection. It was super late, I was exhausted and tired and stood and contemplated whether or not I could just suck it up for the night, when a final yell from the room next door answered for me “ABSOLUTELY F$&KING NOT.” I had booked two nights and although I’m waiting to hear back whether or not hotels.com will refund me at least for 1; I honestly don’t care either way. There was no way I’d stay there even at a loss
