10/10 Excellent
"Loved this hotel. Lots of nice amenities. Only dislike I have is that the area is kind of sketchy due to some homeless around, but they did not bother anyone. You can park at the parking lot across the street for significantly cheaper than at the property. Hot tub, pool, fitness area, and restaurants were very nice and the rooms were beautiful. Close to a lot of local shops and bus stops."

"Nice clean room in a great location. Parking is pricey but it's San Francisco. Staff not knowledgeable about the area. Couldn't tell me where to get a cup of early morning coffee. I discovered by accident an IHOP and an Algerian breakfast/sandwich shop right around the corner of the hotel. We would return to the hotel on a future visit."
