Cons (-) The room is very small. The bed is not so comfortable, it could have been a better bed.
Pros (+) The location was great for my work trip in San Francisco. The price was great as well! It looks like it's getting an upgrade next year, that I think will be great! The room was clean and it was all I ...
Cons (-) My room didn't have shampoo, soap or even a drinking cup for water, and the building didn't have any sort of drinks machine. I think with a little more attention to details like that, this hotel could...

Pros (+) Good location, close to Bart Station. I enjoyed the complimentary breakfast.
Pros (+) Good location
Cons (-) Although we booked a room with a queen-size bed, we were given a room with a double bed. The bed was too small and the room too stuffy/hot, so we asked to change rooms. They were booked and refused to...

Pros (+) It was basically in union square. The hotel was cleanly and the front desk staff where friendly. Breakfast was minimal but appreciated.
Cons (-) It was excruciatingly small. I don't mind a smaller room but I tripped over the bed, chair, and cords many times! The cleaning staff knocked on our door at 9:00 am each morning! Come on, we wanted to ...

Cons (-) The elevator is a bit slow, but it's not really a problem--it encouraged me to get some exercise by using the stairs a few times :) The breakfast isn't much, but it did the job and the coffee was hot ...

Pros (+) The location was excellent. Also offered a complimentary continental breakfast every morning. Great value.
Cons (-) n/a
Pros (+) Low cost for the area. Conveniently location. Overall my room was reasonably quite despite the proximity to Union Square.
Cons (-) Continental breakfast was pretty poor. Coffee was pretty watered down. I decided not to eat there during my 4-day stay.
Pros (+) The location was good just off Union Square and the staff were really pleasant & helpful.
Cons (-) As other guests say very noisy from the trams & also some construction work going on nearby which started very early morning. We had to have windows open as the room was small & stuffy. The rooms are ...
