Stayed at the Opal for five nights in july 2006. It´s a nice hotel, situated a bit from central downtown and the cablecars. The rooms are a bit small but okay for a couple of days. Staff is friendly and offers good service, but if you have (as we did) a room towards the main street in front of the hotel, you have to put up with some traffic noise.
San Francisco is a great city - I have visited twice - eventhough you have to accept the seagust coming in and making even a summerday quite cold.
Across the front of the hotel you will find Tommy´s Joint, which we highly can recommend for an evening meal.
For a short stay in San Francisco The Opal is okay, you can find better budget hotels but surely also worse budget hotels.
