    outdated, but for the price and only stayed one night it was great!

    I liked that it was very close to restaurants/bars. Walking distance! Also very close to the golden gate bridge. Seemed like it was on the good side of San Francisco, people walking all night.

    Location is well within walking distances to food, shopping and tourist places. No need to drive. I enjoyed sight seeing and eating. Very convenient with free parking included. Overall, it met my needs.

    We had to book last minute and we were happy to find a room. It's nothing fancy, but it is definetely good to spend a night or two. The sheets were not super clean but then again, for a last-minute booking, can't complain! Walking distance to a lot of restaurants and to Presidio Park.

    Good location, well connected to the main sights by public transportation Muni, bus 28. The room is well equipped with microwave and fridge as well as a table for two. Service was very good. Free parking is a huge plus. Price is good for San Francisco.

    Staffs are knocking a lot and it sometimes scared me. They opened the door at 9 am and all staffs tried to come to my room except last day. It is not about service. If I had a gun I would shot them by accidently because they acted like robbers. You guys who want to visit please bring private pannel like 'dont interupt me'.

    I like price and location.

    Everything was close by and didn’t have to drive far and wait in traffic…if you wanted to go into the city. Golden Gate Bridge and Museum was close by. Restaurants was a walking distance. Room was big enough for a solo traveler and no disturbance at all.

    Terrible experience!!!

    Value was terrible. I decided to pay more($144/night), relative to the local competition, because I wanted a better experience for our New Year holiday stay. However, I did not experience any features that warranted the increased price. In fact, I was disappointed because of the following: 1- No hot water!!! 2- Free parking was advertised, but there were only 4 parking spaces for the complex. 3- Quality of bedding and towels was poor, and they were very old. Checkout time was 11am, and the maid just walked right in at 10am without knocking first. RUDE!!! Wouldn't stay here again unless the price is half of what we paid.

    Location was excellent for our trip. Nothing else was to our liking.

    Mold all around the room, a refrigerator that wasn't on, leaked. They did have a functioning refrigerator also in the room. The door to the bathroom was in an inconvenient spot, you couldn't open the door & use the sink.

    The check in went well,Hash was really personable, but the room was not up to standard. My girlfriend found alot of mold all around the room. The main reason I booked this room was its proximity to the Palace if Fine Arts theater.
