6.0/10

The hotel rooms were clean and comfortable, but small and pricey, with some issues like bugs and a malfunctioning TV. The service was a mix of good and bad experiences. The location was close to the city center, but cleanliness was lacking. Dining options were limited to basic, carb-heavy selections.

5.8/10

My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient for transportation and exploring the area, but the cleanliness and room quality could have been better. The service had its highs and lows, with some issues encountered, but overall, there were positive aspects. The dining options were basic with some limitations. The facilities offered were satisfactory with room for improvement.

Rooms

5.0

Despite having requested a non-smoking room, it was not as clean and could have been a bit nicer. I would suggest taking the phone off the hook if you're paranoid.

Service

5.0

The service was unhelpful at times, accusing us of stealing towels and even redirecting us to a different, lower-quality hotel in a different location while charging more for parking. However, there were instances where the service improved and was better than expected.

Location

6.0

The hotel is located on 9th and Harrison, which is convenient for transportation options like hailing a taxi or using a ride-sharing service. However, the neighborhood did not feel safe, and might not be ideal for those without a car. Despite this, there are numerous attractions within walking distance, and it's close to downtown San Francisco.

Dining

6.0

The dining options were sufficient with a basic, American-style menu, heavy on carbohydrates but with some available fruit. Unfortunately, the selection lacked meat and fresh fruit choices.

Facilities

6.0

The hotel facilities were decent, offering essential amenities, although there is room for improvement in terms of overall quality and service.

6.8/10

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms, albeit spacious and clean, were initially unsettling due to a strange room change mishap and a lingering smell of smoke. On the bright side, the service was exceptional, with genuinely kind and helpful staff making my stay more pleasant. The location, chosen for its proximity to the Bay bridge, was a bit unsettling due to a significant homeless presence but was convenient for accessing the airport. The dining experience fell short with very limited options, although the continental breakfast used to be a standout feature. Overall, a mixed experience with notable highs and lows.

Rooms

Location

6.0

The location was chosen for its convenience to the Bay bridge and the airport, but the prevalent homeless presence made it feel unsafe at times.

Dining

The dining experience was underwhelming with very limited options compared to what it used to offer, especially for breakfast.
