staff were very helpful, room was very nice, location was good

Jennifer United States of America

A very comfortable room in an aging hotel. I liked the breakfast bags and the wine treat a nice touch. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Moira Canada

The room was fantastic! Clean and mix of old and new charm! Was welcomed with some delicious wine and cheese just before we headed out for exploring.

Amanda United States of America

Breakfast box was fine, except no microwave to heat water for instant oatmeal. And a bigger pastry would be good.

Chris United States of America

Great breakfast, lovely comfortable room and a great location. The only negative was the man who worked at the front desk had a huge chip on his shoulder and you could tell he didn’t like the guests. You could tell every question we asked irritated him and he felt our questions were stupid. Had we not been in such good moods this might have darkened our opinion of the place.

Joan United States of America

Room was very pleasant. Old but with good amenities.The bathroom was ver spacious.

  • How much is the parking. Where is the WiFi available
    Dear Guest, We do not have a shuttle that we own, but we do have companies we can recommend. Both Airport Express and Go Lorries charge $18 per person to travel from the airport to our hotel, and leave from SFO every 30 minutes. Taxis and private cars cost about $50 to $65. There’s also the BART train, which only costs $8.65 per person and leaves directly from the airport. The closest station is Powell Street, which is about six blocks away from us (about a ten minute walk). Thank you, Beresford Reservations
