Question: How dirty is the carpet?

My husband, myself and our 3 young children stayed here for 7 days in January. I was tempted by the good rate offered by Expedia. I read the reviews on Tripadvisor, but somehow I thought how bad could the hotel be, it is in such a good neighborhood. I knew right away I had made a bad choice of hotels when we took the elevator to our room and it smelled of urine. When we got to our room, the door was wide open and the electricity didn't work. The carpets were utterly filthy. I had an asthma attack immediately. I almost broke down into tears, knowing I had booked 7 days, and it was nonrefundable, but I couldn't cry in front of my kids. I went back to the front desk and asked if he could change us to a clean room or a remodeled room, which would mean cleaner carpet. He kindly upgraded us to a suite, which was a lot better. I thought we could manage now. There were many other guests at the hotel from all walks of life going about their BUSINESS. I did not feel safe in my room as the locks on the door were a bit loose. There were liqour bottles and bags of garbage left outside peoples doors for more than 12 hours at a time. The staff did not clean it up. The car park also had garbage people had emptied out of their car and just left it there. Also, where they kept their trash, it was piled 20 feet high in black bags, along with the local bum going through it. When I was parking my car one night, I came across a young man emptying out a car and taking out the speakers. I didn't say anything, as he saw me in my car and my three kids. Needless to say, my car was broken into on my second to last day there. I have stayed in hundreds of hotels all around the world, as I use to work for an airline, this is the worst by far, I have ever come across.

Question: How is the view from this hotel?

We just spent a week at the Intercontinental San Francisco. What a great choice! For the rate we paid, the room was outstanding. It was obvious that the hotel was new and the big screen LCD TV was excellent. The location was nice, a few blocks walk to Union Square and/or the trolley/BART. One block to the Westfield Shopping Center. By comparison, the neighborhood just to the south and west did not look too inviting but it was safe enough during the day. Definitely avoid using a rental car if possible, the parking fees are high at the hotel and driving in SF is not a good idea. It was very easy to get to all of our tours on foot from the hotel; we walked to most of them (be sure to bring your jacket). We had a great view of the city from the 26th floor, corner room. Service was overall very good and the room was properly cleaned. The hotel restaurant (Luce) had some very good fusion-style food choices; the bar was OK for hanging out in but a bit loud due to its lobby location. Overall I would not hesitate to recommend the Intercontinental for a vacation or business destination.

Question: How was the hotel?

We thought all hotels in SF seemed very expensive so booked a Best Western that seemed ok, but we were quite nervous about this average looking 3 star hotel. But all our worries were for nothing. The hotel is very old, the lift seemed 100 years old, but the hotel has oodles of old charm. The room we had was indeed small, but super charming. Colour scheme delightful, and decoration very nice. The bathroom was again very small, but this is SF where supposedly everything is small or expensive. At least it was all clean. Its a short walk to Union Square, where I recommend going to Macys and having lunch or dinner at The Cheesecake factory. You must have at least two portions of the to die for cheesecake, mmm. The Fishermans wharf area is relatively quick and easy to get to from here, so no real need to pay the extra money to stay there. Union square area is super especially if you wanna do some shopping. We were very happy with this hotel. And must also insist that you visit Alcatraz, which was the highlight on the whole California/ Vegas trip. But book before you go, and book the 9.30 morning trip to avoid crowds.

Question: How is the hotel?

We are loyal Starwood fans and have stayed in the St. Francis and the Palace in San Francisco. Le Meridien's rooms are far superior to these. Our two rooms on the 23rd floor had spectacular views of coit tower, Washington Square cathedral, the bay and the transamerican building. The view was better than any of the hotels we have stayed in S.F. (Marriot Fisherman's wharf, St. Francis, The Palace, Omni, Milano, Grand Hyatt, Sir Francis Drake, etc. - we are in S.F. a few days each year) The staff was very cordial and professional. The rooms were amazing! We can easily say the amenities, linens, spaciousness, and luxurious bathrooms were among the nicest rooms we have stayed in anywhere. Everything was beautiful and we feel we have discovered a new "favorite hotel". The financial district is great if you want to enjoy the entire city rather than just Union square. We were in S.F. for the Opera and to have brunch with a friend. A taxi to the opera was less than $10. This would mean a taxi to Union square would be under $5 and within walking distance or California street cable car. Chinatown and the Embarcadero are walking distance. Farmer's market is nearby. Museums of SOMA are a 15 minute walk or under $5 for a taxi. The restaurants of Belden Place are closer to the Omni, but only an additional 5-10 minute walk from Le Meridien. Of course the rooms at Le Meridien are far more spacious and luxurious. We had adjoining rooms at the Omni last year and viewed an alley with half the space in the rooms. If I had to choose something negative to say about the Meridien - the parking was $49. A little ridiculous.

Question: Where is food?

We stayed for two nights. This hotel is in a good location on Fisherman's Wharf. There is a supermarket 2 minutes away for provisions. The rooms are clean and reasonably sized. Coffee is available from reception every morning, every evening there is wine available in reception. This was a great idea, as you got to talk to other guests, it was a very friendly occasion. There is a restaurant attached to this hotel, with good food. Overall - a really nice hotel and reasonably priced.

Question: How is the quality of the concierge?

My family and I spent the three days before Christmas '04, in a suite at the Mandarin. While some of the hotel is showing a bit of age (carpeting in the elevator, for instance), it did not detract one bit from the fantastic views and excellent service.Our rooms were very clean and spacious, with tasteful furnishings and fresh flowers. The bathrooms were huge and contained everything you could possibly need. The bed was very comfortable and I was pleased that it did not have one of those dreadful feather mattresses. Another nice feature was the zoned heat/air, i.e., the living and sleeping areas were on separate thermostats. There was also a nicely stocked mini bar, a cd player and a dvd player.The service was absolutely the best. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like the only guests in the hotel. The concierge was fantastic, suggesting restaurants (all good), making reservations and even arranging for the hotel car to drive us. Room service was fast and tasty, housekeeping was excellent and unobtrusive and our car was always ready within minutes of phoning the parking valet. The entire staff was courteous, friendly and accommodating.The views from the hotel are truly amazing and they even supply you with binoculars. We had no dirty windows in our rooms.The Mandarin Oriental was very impressive and I highly recommend it for anyone desiring an upscale hotel with outstanding service.

Question: How is the bed?

I was in town for business and styed at Marriott Fisherman's Wharf because the other Marriott in downtown was sold out. I should have just stayed at another hotel in a different location. This place was not up to par. It had a marriott courtyard/holiday inn feel. Eyerything about this place was old and outdated. The chairs in the lobby was worn out and stained. My room was very noisy, heard the traffic noise all through the night and the heater smelled like milldew so I kept it off. The room was on the small side and the bathroom was especially small. The bath products were nice (from bed bath). The bedding looked new and clean but found the bed to be too soft. The gym was small and had old star trac equipments.

Question: How is the wifi?

We stayed 4 nights at the Diva, after having stayed there 3 nights last summer. We found the 7th floor rooms extremely comfortable, clean, and the king sized beds with toppers are awesome. The hotel is in a great location and the staff makes it all worth it - they are all wonderful, friendly, helpful and accommodating. They gave us great directions to places and recommendations. We truly enjoyed being there. I found the morning coffee way too strong and bitter, but I see others have liked it, so it's a matter of taste. Free internet service in the rooms was convenient and easy to access. I am very fussy about hotels and generally do not like them, but I was very comfortable staying at Hotel Diva.

Question: Is staff knowledgeable?

This is the second time I have stayed at the Orchard Garden and I highly recommend it. The staff is wonderful and I always find it easy to relax and unwind in my room. The ambiance is soothing and I very much appreciate the emphasis on natural fibers and products. I also appreciate the extras: wireless internet is free, there is an in room safe, the bath products are of a high quality, newspapers are delivered every morning etc. I was in town for a conference at one of the large hotels. Not only did I get a much better rate (internet special) at the Orchard, but on comparing notes, my stay was much more pleasant than my friends who stayed with the conference.

Question: How was the stay?

The hotel is beautiful. Our room was perfect and the beds were SO comfortable. Didn't miss a wink of sleep. The bathroom was roomy. The lights were a little dim in the bathroom but that was our only complaint. The service was excellent. Be sure to ask for a room in the tower as these are newer and more roomy. The glassed elevator will transport you up to your sleeping paradise. We will stay here on every trip back to San Francisco. It is also conveniently located to all of the stores and restaurants, all within easy walking distance. Perfecto!

Question: How simple is the hotel?

Hotel was decent and very affordable. Ours was relatively clean (except our balcony, which could have been cleaner). Nothing fancy, but then, we weren't in SF for the hotel.

Question: How cool is the place?

The Phoenix is located in the Tenderloin/Little Saigon area of San Francisco, which can be a little, uh, colorful, to say the least. That's not to say it's a threatening neighborhood; it's not. It's a bit transitional, though. But the Phoenix itself is a great place. Very hip and very friendly. The rooms are appointed in a mid-century modern style, and they're spacious. The staff is professional and very outgoing. The place is very clean and remarkably quiet, given it's located in the heart of the city. I get to San Francisco often and plan to stay there again soon, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone but the most conservative traveler.

It's a bit transitional, though. <hl> But the Phoenix itself is a great place. Very hip and very friendly. The rooms are appointed in a mid-century modern style, and they're spacious. <hl> The staff is professional and very outgoing. The place is very clean and remarkably quiet, given it's located in the heart of the city. I get to San Francisco often and plan to stay there again soon, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone but the most conservative traveler.

Question: How would you describe the size of the bathroom?

Just returned from 3 nights at the Sheraton Fishermans Wharf. A nice facility in the heart of Fishermans Wharf. Our double room overlooked a/c units on the roof (I don't think any of the rooms have much of a view). Room was well appointed & clean with great beds. Bathroom was extremely small as stated by other reviewers, contained tub and commode. My only complaints are no free wifi in rooms and ridiculous prices at coffee bar in lobby.

Question: How is it staff?

I attended a meeting last week organized by my company, and had no idea what the Hotel Monaco was all about. I'd never heard of it. I can only say that it was the most unique, comfortable, stunning hotel I've ever had the pleasure of checking in to. The room was decent size but the decor was beyond outstanding. Colorful, fun, cozy, warm and inviting. The front desk staff were great. There's a restaurant that has an impressive two story ceiling with incredible light fixtures, display kitchen and decent if short menu. On my next visit to San Francisco I will definitely stay at the Monaco.

Question: How was the food?

My daughter and I stayed at the Ritz for the first time in August 2008. This hotel is not only beautiful, the customer service is outstanding. We were treated like queens. Our room was a corner room on the 6th floor . It was spacious and clean. We enjoyed the beautiful spa, swimming pool and workout room. The service that my daughter had at the spa was perfect. We ordered two ice cream cups in our room and they were the best ice cream cups we ever had. Not only ice cream but cookies, chocolate, whipped cream and a rose on the side. This one night trip was very relaxing and we will remember it forever. Thank you to the Ritz Carlton.

Question: What do you think of the place?

Upon entering the hotel, we were struck by its grandeur, as well as the security. It was extremely busy and too early to check in. Our bags were taken into storage and we were free to explore the city. Upon check in, our bags were quickly delivered to our room. The hotel room had a spectacular view of the bay and Union Square. The room was big, for a city hotel. Very clean. Staff always friendly and helpful. Loved having both a starbucks and restaurant in the hotel. We had two complimentary breakfasts each morning with our package. Concierge was helpful, there was a complimentary computer/printer for flight check in/printing boarding passes. No wait Taxi and Town car service. We knew people staying in other hotels near Union Square. When they visited the Hilton, they said they wished they were staying here. We visited the heated pool and whirlpool on the 16th floor. Very nice facility. Free high speed internet! Excellent service and stay!

Question: How was the service in the hotel?

We stayed for one night after an international flight. We were so tired we stayed at the hotel for most of tour stay. We booked directly.We have ambassador status and our upgrade request was honored.1) Rooms 4/5 - This was a historic hotel and the rooms were designed that way with modern conveniences. The bathrooms had marble floors and granite tops. I did not like the tub area because it looked old. The views were great. The room was not as large even with the upgrade. 2) Customer service 5/5 - it was excellent, they checked us in early at 9 am. Porters were busy but tried to help as much as they can. Their concierge was helpful with directions and arranged an airport limo which was the same price as a cab ride.3) Location 4/5 - excellent and safe but it was difficult to walk around due to the steep incline. Otherwise, Nob hill is a good place to be.Overall, if you like historic hotels, this is one of them. Customer service is great and the views are one of the best in San Francisco.

Question: How do you describe the interior?

My mom and I stayed here for one night; booked via Priceline. The GOOD:The lobby and room appearance is nice, as it is newly renovated. When we checked in, we were actually upgraded (without charge) to a BayView Deluxe double room on the 16th floor. It has a great view of Telegraph Hill and Coit Tower, plus the Bay of course.We didn't find the room cramped. It was fine for the 2 of us.The BAD:POOR sound insulation! Apart from street noise (which started at 6:30am), the walls are thin. Even though our room was half-way down the corridor, we could still hear the elevator sound (the alert sound it makes when approaching the floor). Also, we could here footsteps from the room above plus from the hallway despite carpet. Lastly, our neigbors decided to turn on really loud music at 12:30am which woke both of us up.No exhaust fan in the bathroom, so it steams up after a shower.We noticed a faint odor when we entered our room. I couldn't pinpoint it, but my mom was convinced it smelled like cigarette smoke even though the hotel is non-smoking. It wasn't a big deal as it was very faint.NEUTRAL:Location. I like the fact it's next to Chinatown, which is great for meals.However, it is not that convenient to the rest. Montgomery station (the closest BART/Muni) is a good 15-min walk. We arrived from the airport via BART, and it was no fun walking there as it was slightly uphill. There are also very few bus lines that go near the hotel.

Question: How much street noise is there?

This hotel was my final destination on my round the world trip before jetting back to England. I had stayed in fantastic hotels in Singapore, Sydney and Tahiti and to stay here was such a disappointment that coming home and going back to work didn't seem to tedious! The hotel has such an unclean factor about it. I was put in a smoking room (which I requested) and after an hour I requested to move room as there seemed to be something moving around and scrapping above the ceiling. To be honest, it sounded liked rats or mice, put it this way, it wasn't human! They only smoking room left was a few floors down and I was warned that it was a little small. SMALL????!!!!! you couldn't swing a cat in it! The double bed took up the whole floor space and it was situated right by the lifts. Constant noise all day and night. The view out the window was of a brick wall, but I thought 'heck, you are only sleeping here, go explore San Francisco'.That was the plan until, on the 3rd morning at the hotel, the shower stopped working. After 5 phone calls to maintenance, and 3 hours later, someone came up to have a look at it and I was told there is a problem with the water affecting a few rooms on that floor. But I was assured that it would be fixed in good time. After a quick 'sink' wash, I headed out, only to return some hours later to find that the shower still didn't work. To cut a long story short, it took the hotel 48 hours to get it fixed. I was offered no real apology and had to ask to use another room to get a shower. Apparently, they were all booked up to move me on a permanent basis. Unbelieveable! Would I stay here again? Not even if you got me in a first class seat to San Francisco from Heathrow and gave me a million pounds to stay in this hotel. Do yourself a favour, book elsewhere.

Question: How was the service of the staff member?

My husband and I stayed at the Sheraton in Fisherman's Wharf for one night June 30th. It was a very nice hotel which was close enough to everything. The hotel itself was very clean and nice. The employees were very courteous and helpful. We loved the fact that we could walk all over San Francisco and had no problem getting back to the hotel. We had something to eat late in the bar area and the food was very good. I know that people in other reviews said they didn't care for this hotel, but I was very satisfied with it and felt for the money it was very nice. We even got the romance package which included a wine & cheese platter and also a late checkout and it wasn't even that much more. I would definitely stay thereagain!

Question: What is the cafe like?

We stayed for three nights in March. The people there were very friendly. I asked for a king size bed on the booking form and got the biggest bed I have ever seen in my life! Our room faced into the courtyard and was very quiet. The location is great. Feels very safe and is just a few blocks from the cable car and some nice cafes and restaurants. Apart from our obligatory tourist ride on the cable car we walked nearly everywhere - down to the wharf (where we hired bikes to go to Golden Gate Bridge), North Beach, Chinatown, Telegraph Hill, Union Square..... The staff were happy to advise us where not to walk through, and the hills were a good work out!I'd definitely recommend booking this motel.

Question: Where can I get good service from this hotel?

I booked three rooms for three nights for our family get-together in San Fransciso. Everyone really enjoyed comfy, clean rooms and the price was very reasonable on Priceline. All three rooms were newly renovated on the upper floors! Free champagn in the Lobby on Thursday evening welcomed us to the hotel - very nice. The concierge was fabulous! We had trouble getting reservations to The Slanted Door - a restaurant that was highly recommended to us. The concierge was able to book our reservations like magic. The concierge continued to be our best friend throughout the weekend. The hotel is undergoing renovations but we were only disturbed by noise on late Friday afternoon. Everything was quiet over the weekend. This is a nice location with easy access to public transportation. The trolleys were very crowded most of the time but well worth the wait to back to the hotel...as it's a very steep walk from almost any direction! We had breakfast at the hotel one morning and it was pleasant and delicious - although the service was a bit slow. We did have difficulty keeping ice in the room with no ice machine available. Room service would bring ice - but it usually took awhile. We took the hotel limo to SFO airport for a very reasonable price. Overall a very nice weekend!

Question: How good is the drink?

We returned to The Mark Hopkins this summer after more than a decade and had an outstanding long weekend. We arrived at San Francisco Airport and were brought to The Mark Hopkins by a most friendly driver of Virgin Limousine, arranged by the hotel. Location atop Nob Hill is great, architecturally stunning building. Rooms are decorated with beautiful fabrics, great beds and all marble bathrooms. We took advantage of the rate including breakfast, which I would recommend to everyone. The breakfast at Top of the Mark was one of the best we have experienced in a hotel in a long time; delicious food, excellent staff who cared for every detail. Most importantly, the view is fantastic!!!! On weekend nights, it is possible to have dinner and drinks in Top of the Mark as well, with great live jazz, dancing, cocktails and the city lights all around you. Top of the Mark is reason enough to stay at The InterContinental alone! All in all, our stay at The Mark Hopkins added a lot to our weekend in San Francisco. Although we stopped by the new Four Seasons, which looked gorgeous inside, we would choose The Mark Hopkins again for ambiance, location, and breakfast at Top of the Mark.

Answer: excellent

We returned to The Mark Hopkins this summer after more than a decade and had an outstanding long weekend. We arrived at San Francisco Airport and were brought to The Mark Hopkins by a most friendly driver of Virgin Limousine, arranged by the hotel. Location atop Nob Hill is great, architecturally stunning building. Rooms are decorated with beautiful fabrics, great beds and all marble bathrooms. We took advantage of the rate including breakfast, which I would recommend to everyone. <hl> The breakfast at Top of the Mark was one of the best we have experienced in a hotel in a long time; delicious food, excellent staff who cared for every detail. <hl> Most importantly, the view is fantastic!!!! On weekend nights, it is possible to have dinner and drinks in Top of the Mark as well, with great live jazz, dancing, cocktails and the city lights all around you. Top of the Mark is reason enough to stay at The InterContinental alone! All in all, our stay at The Mark Hopkins added a lot to our weekend in San Francisco. Although we stopped by the new Four Seasons, which looked gorgeous inside, we would choose The Mark Hopkins again for ambiance, location, and breakfast at Top of the Mark.

Question: How was bed quality on rooms?

I have been to the city a few times now. Spending a night here and there. Stayed Friday night before flight at the Orchard Hotel on Bush. Very nice staff very friendily. Even the cleaning staff greeted you. While at breakfast Cornell the valet brought our car down and loaded it for us. The bed and bedding were wonderful. Great location just two blocks off Union Square. I will definitely return.

Question: Is a interesting decor in the hotel?

Everyone has said it already. Great hotel, hip style, great location. Right off union square and we booked three nights for a rate of less than $100 a night. Even friends who were locals in SF couldn't believe the deal. Right across from the Curan and ACT Theatres and a block to the square and trolley to the wharf or other parts of town. Loved the decor and how the staff made you feel important everytime you came or went through their doors. Was very impressed and had a wonderful stay. Free internet lounges, fitness room (hard to find in the city), buisness center, and diva lounge with snacks and drinks. Just wish we could have stayed longer. LOVED IT!

Question: How is bathrooms quality on rooms of this hotel?

We stayed a week after getting a very good price through Expedia and were pleased with our choice. The room was well appointed and of a good size with a nice bathroom. We didn't have a view but that was our choice - we asked for a quiet room and accepted one overlooking the inner courtyard. It was very quiet - these old hotels are so much better built and soundproofed than new ones - apart from the constant background drone of the aircon/heating system which didn't prevent me sleeping and didn't disturb my wife at all.The service was impeccable, from our reception when we first arrived until the morning we departed. All the staff were pleasant, courteous and helpful. We ate in both the Tonga Room and the Laurel Lounge. The Tonga Room's South Sea Island themed ambiance works well enough and the MOR band were fine, if not my cup of tea musically. The single meal we had there was very good if not exceptional and the girls loved their cocktails. We had both lunch and dinner on Christmas Day in the Laurel Lounge. We weren't intending to but discovered that Christmas lunch in the USA is not the same as in the UK! A club sandwich is not my idea of Christmas Lunch, no matter how good it is! The misunderstanding was rectified by then booking Christmas Dinner and this was acheived with minimum fuss despite the restaurant being fully booked that evening. Dinner was fine for a big hotel on Christmas Day and well presented - expensive but that was expected.The Nob Hill location is very central and most of the tourist areas of the city are within easy reach. We walked to the Union Square and Market Street shops, Chinatown, North Beach, Telegraph Hill, Lombard Street, Ghiradelli Square, and Fishermans Wharf. Walking back is more difficult because that is one steep hill! However, the hotel is at the crossroads of two cable car lines and several bus routes - buy a pass if you stay there!

Question: Do you know any close hotel?

After much research, I selected the Rex based on positive reviews, competitive pricing, and a great location. I was not disappointed with my decision! I stayed in room 502 (executive king). It was a very nice sized room - especialy by San Fran standards. 502 is located in the back of the hotel so it was pretty quiet. However, I still used my white noise machine. The hotel is charming, clean, and nicely decorated. The staff was probably the best I have ever encountered. Professional yet very friendly and accomodating. Even the maids were smiling. They seemed happy to be there. Wow. I did not realize this until our stay was almost over, but there is "study" which has 2 computers and a printer. Very nice to be able to check email and print off your boarding pass. We were going to be adventurous and ride BART to the airport but an hour before we were to check out we reconsidered. The staff lined up a shuttle for us in no time flat. They also helped us arrange a tour to Muir Woods. If I ever find myself in SF again I will certainly return to the Rex!

Question: How were the conditions of the hotel?

If you can stay for less than $100/night, then this hotel is fine. There's nothing disgusting or unsafe about. However, if you are looking for a nice place to stay for $100 or more per night, I would choose somewhere else. First, on Tuesday night around 9 p.m., I called for a wake up call and no one answered. I hung up and kept calling back every 15 minutes with the same results. After an hour of trying, I called every number I could find -- front desk, conceirge, housekeeping, room service, etc. and NO ONE answered the phone. This was very frustrating. (However, I was able to place a wake up call request on the other nights of my stay)Second, I wouldn't rely solely on the wake-up call. It wouldn't ever be right at the specified time.Third, the street noise was extremely loud. I heard sirens and construction noise all day and night the entire week. As I was checking out, a colleague told me there are floor vents that are left open, but if you close them, it quiets the noise significantly. I wish I had been told I could close those vents (or if those vents had been closed in the first place.)In conclusion, this hotel is fine, but I'd stay somewhere else with all the great hotels San Francisco offers!

Question: How good are the staff here?

Loved this hotel!! Saw it reviewed on "Great Hotels" on the Travel Channel. This place is lovely and comfortable. The people were helpful and nice. We had "Sparky" the fish added on request to our room which was totally cute. The suite we stayed in was great with the jacuzzi tube. We loved the beautiful Grand Cafe located next door and We took advantage of Spa Eq located on the hotel's lower level. It is a co-ed facility so be aware of that. We would go back in a "hot second"! The Hotel Monaco is simply marvelous, darling.

Question: How is the parking?

Booked our stay off the internet based on positive reviews and some posted photos. Didn't know what to expect when we arrived but once in our room was pleasantly surprised to find very clean quarters, bedding and bathroom. Nice little continental breakfast in the morning and you can't beat the safe, free parking which is not cheap nor plentiful in San Fran. Great desk help with directions and they even lent us umbrella's on the days it rained. Felt very safe in the neighborhood which is full of shops and restaurants and close to bus and cable cars. Try Polker's for breakfast, great burgers too! Near Pacific Hts. upscale homes. The weekend that we left to come home was already booked full. If it just needs to be clean and comfortable but not fancy, definately try this place. Very well kept secret ! Won't hestitate to stay again when we come back. Thanks Damon!The Gribb's Cleveland, Ohio

Question: How is the bathroom?

I always try to stay in Marriott hotels because I'm a member of their rewards program. I was a little hesitant to stay after reading some of the reviews but I had a great experience! I travel a lot for business (at least two weeks out of the month) so I have stayed in my fair share of hotels. This was by far one of the best hotels I've stayed in.The staff at check-in was very friendly and gave me a couple options for rooms (one with a city view on the 19th floor or a larger room with a sitting area on the 12th floor) since I was scheduled to stay there for two weeks. I chose the view and it was great! Since I was by myself the room was definitely large enough for me and the bathroom was great. The rooms were clean and quiet (I'm a light sleeper so quiet is very important to me!)The concierge lounge had a very nice breakfast as well as appetizers and dessert at night. The staff at the concierge desk was great and helped me with every question I had. They gave me great recommendations and they were very friendly.The location of the hotel is great! Close to the cable car line and very close to union square with a lot of shops and restaurants! I will definitely be staying here again when I return to San Francisco!

Question: How do you rate the parking?

This hotel was HUGE! I went for a bachelorette party and this hotel was perfect: it had a great hot tub, was in a prime location with walking distance to restaurants and clubs, and fit a lot of girls into the rooms. There was also a drug store across the street which was convenient for the next morning. Parking was extremely expensive though - try finding a lot to park at nearby.
