First, I would say that I am not a high class traveler. I am perfectly happy staying at an average hotel as long as they are clean and safe. This hotel met those criteria. The rooms were definately worn. The furniture had multiple scratches, dings and dents. The walls had some scratches or bits of torn wall paper. The fabric chairs had stains on them...in multiple locations; so did the carpet. It wasn't horrible and if you could look past the imperfections, it was just fine. They were clean rooms (besides the stains) and had totally adequate bathrooms. The location of the hotel is perfect. I traveled with two of my girlfriends for a mommy's weekend and we had a blast. The staff was very helpful and gave us some great recommendations for restaurants and how to get around the area.
Would I stay here again? Yes. Would my friends who like the better things in life? Probably not. I think it was a great value for the money and location.
One of the best parts of the hotel is the spa/pool area. You have to pay $10 (per room for your entire stay) for access, but the cost was totally reasonable and a great treat. There is a seperate locker room for women and men and each had their own steam room and sauna. The pool area wasn't spectacular, but it was empty and we enjoyed the hot tub.
Oh, and there is a great little Irish pub across the street. They have live music and a great atmosphere. They have dueling pianos several nights of the week.
All in all, we had a great time in San Francisco and the hotel met our needs perfectly.
