Good places to eat and drink nearby (if you find them) Competitively priced for same size / style of room in other areas Facilities in room, inc free coffee machine and bottled water

Paul, United Kingdom

Wonderful staff who were extremely helpful. Clean and well positioned.

Sonia, Australia

The Staff are really amazing. Very helpful and always eager to guide or tell you about interesting things in San Fran, solve a problem, or just order you a taxi or provide you with information you may need.

Robert, New Zealand

The bed was the best! I don't think I've ever had a better hotel bed. The hotel is close enough to the center of the city to walk (union Square is an easy walk) and Market St not much futher from that.

Clive, New Zealand

New modern design hotel Clean facilities Professional friendly staff. Jeff was very helpful and pleasant

Aldo, Switzerland

Comfy bed, nice sofa, fridge and microwave (although I didn't use them). Friendly staff. Clean and well kept.

Jacqueline, United Kingdom

It is fair for what you pay and staff was really helpful and gentle. Didn't try breakfast because I had read good reviews of a joint nearby, which I decided to try.

Aurelio, Brazil

Very accommodating staff. Well designed rooms, although small, very functional. Extremely clean property.

James, United States of America

The room was comfortable and compact with variable lighting in room, Nespresso available both in reception and in room, staff very friendly and helpful.

Brian, United Kingdom

Staff and hotel were great but could do little to improve the overall sense of unease with having a nice hotel in a really empoverished neighborhood.

What Travelers Love About This Location

“The staff was very friendly and personable. The location was perfect for me.”

Aryn

United States of America

“Absolutely perfect!! Hotel Epik is well....EPIC. From the moment we walked in we knew our stay was going to be...yes again, EPIC! Beautifully renovated boutique hotel. So close to everything. We walked all over from the hotel and is was safe and easy. We were greeted by the nicest young man. Our room was ready so we were able to check in at 11:30, no extra charge. Lobby is beautiful with free Nescafé coffee machine. Our room was fabulous. Clean, modern and they thought of everything. Even ROBES! Toiletries were top of the line, coffee machine was fancy, bed was comfy. Yes EPIC. WE WILL RETURN! Thanks Booking.com. Great price. Oh and drive a few blocks and you can easily find 24 hour parking for $25! It won't hurt you to walk a bit extra if you want to save some dollars. ”

눉Location is quite ‘grungy’ ... whilst I don’t suppose the hotel can do much about that, the noise insulation in the room was poor (window did not close properly and glazing did not block out noise pollution) - we were disturbed all through the night by homeless people outside and very loud music, fighting, etc. In addition, a’resort tax’ supposedly had been introduced since booking (no warning from the hotel or Booking.com) which we had to pay on departure.
눇Clean and modern rooms.

눉The location of this hotel is really poor. The surrounding streets are quite daunting to walk through with the amount of homeless people around. I would not recommend this part of town to stay in at all, it really ruined our trip as we checked out a day early.

Finally we would recieve a better room, but we received exactly the same and lost a lot of time. Hotel staff didn’t know what to do with our complaints.

눉One of my bedside lamps didn't work and another light couldn't be switched off. I had said I was there for a special occasion and asked for a good room. I was placed by the noisy ice and vending machines facing the extremely noisy street. To be fair, I didn't ask to be moved and they might have moved me if I had. I didn't tell them about the lights but you think they would check facilities. The location is walkable to some good stuff and some good transport links but it's filthy.
