we stayed at the Grant for 3 nights recently & were pleasantly surprised! i didn't want to stay in a "chain" hotel while in SF, wanted something more unique & characteristic. centrally located, it is a great spot to stay. i thought the staff was friendly, not bothersome & the cleaning staff always had our room tidied & made up by the time we got back from our day. Towels were new & smelled nice. The room was pretty much spotless. i loved the pink walls! every time i woke up i thought it was 1978 and that i was staying in my great aunt's house! the area seemed safe enough, no homeless hanging around outside like i witnessed in other areas. not much of a view (brick wall) but very quiet as far as traffic goes, but the walls did seem a little thin. windows opened to let in fresh air and the heater worked fine for us, if not too good! our bathroom was huge, so not sure where the other people who reviewed stayed! i really appreciated that they let us check in 3 hours early when we arrived too! don't let the "old" smell fool you when you walk in, most places i went into in SF had the same smell, i mean there are alot of OLD buildings there with the same vibe. my husband & i totally appreciated the simplicity of this place & would recommend this hotel to anyone traveling on a budget who can dig on a quaint little place!
