"Staff helped direct us to parking immediately $45/day! They have delicious cookies in the lobby! We loved our room, it was quiet! It is an old historic building with 15 floors. They have 2 elevators, 1 broke while we were there. It didn't cause much of a problem. We used buses and trams to get around the city so we would not have to incur additional parking expenses. Room was clean"

"Decent hotel and a short walk to the Piers and Chinatown.Also close by to the BART rail system to and from the airport.Room was clean with basic amenities such as coffee & tea making facilities,fridge and a safe.bathroom/shower was ok size too. The staff on the front desk were ok when I checked in,but upon checking out,no questions were asked about how my stay was or anything,they just took the key card and said I was 'all done'. My room was directly opposite the gym,so could hear people coming and going all day plus at times music being played in the gym.view from the room was a little disappointing too,but I was out exploring most of the time so it didnt matter too much.There was also some building work being done on the entrance whilst I was staying here.On the whole,I would stay here again."
