Value for money

We were unhappy with the Vietnamese front manager who was not customer friendly at all...she hardly smiles. She has no business doing frontline work at all. The other hotel staff however are wonderful. The location while excellent is noisy until wee hours in the morning.Value for money...

Skip this one

This place was awful from the first greeting, which was lukewarm and unenthusiastic to the room and surroundings itself. Noise, noise and more noise! The place needs serious soundproofing. You’re in the Tenderloin, not the most amenable section of SF. The elevator was broke down so I had to hike 6 flights every evening. Not conducive to walking around the City sightseeing. The hotel is tatty and needs a makeover, not at all like the pics.
