  • Overall: Rating of 4.2 out of 5

    "If you want to get the "real" San Francisco experience, this is a great place to stay." source Orbitz

    "It is a good hotel to spend a night or two and then go off during the day but if you are looking for a lot of extra activities there are none in the hotel but there are plenty all around in the city. Overall, the hotel is affordable and in the middle of everything." source Travelocity

    "Recommend for no more than 2 people a room." source Expedia
