I am a San Francisco native and I’ve stayed so many places now that I’ve moved out of the city and this will be the hotel. I stay at for the rest of my life here because it has the best value for what you pay. You will not find a better hotel for a better price it is central. I was able to walk everywhere in the city and to Bart and Muni the hotel stuff was incredibly nice and professional .

Stayed here for five nights for business. Very comfortable hotel – spacious rooms, clean modern bathroom. Doesn’t serve breakfast, but there is a great restaurant right next-door. Fresh coffee and tea in the lobby at any time. Conveniently located. Would stay here again.
