Hotel Zephyr San Francisco

Hotel Zephyr San Francisco

10/10 Excellent
"Staff was very friendly, we arrived really early and they held our bags for us to we could go and explore. They also held our bags after we checked out, because we weren’t ready to head out yet and still had sight seeing to do. Room was nice and clean. AC was good but seemed a little warm for my preference. Would definitely stay again. "
