The best thing of this hotel is location, you can walk to union square in 5mins but the room is so small and the breakfast is not good. More

We stayed here so that we could join the holiday fun on union square- the price is really reasonable- location is great- rooms are a little small but clean and comfy. More

Let me first say that I booked this hotel months ahead due to it being Fleet Week. We stayed three nights. Paid $68 per night for two people. Great deal. Yes it is an old building, but clean. Helpful, friendly front desk clerks. Small room but quiet. Breakfast was nothing fancy but I was glad to get it. No problem... More

Front desk was helpful. Valet was $19/ night for guests. We stayed for only one night and took advantage of that deal, because parking is NO JOKE in SF. Plentiful restaurants and shopping stores in walking distance. I highly recommend the pizza place to the west of Super 8. Fresh, NOT greasy, nice workers and really good. Fries were fresh... More

Cheap hotel on the best area of San Francisco. The room was too small and rather dark. We almost didn't have enough place for our bags. Anyway, it was good for the price. More

Worst hotel I have eveyr stayed in. Pay a little extra for a nicer place or stay in South SF for the same price and pay for the taxi to Union Square. Bathroom was as big as the room itself and clean. Room was the size of a closet. Dirty floors and the lobby is horrible. You get what you... More

We booked the hotel based on the location convenience to BART and Powell Street. Big mistake. While the hotel receptionist was pleasant and helpful in checking us in early, we got stuck with a smoking room (which I specifically did not order) because all other rooms were booked. Turns out, the room was also located smack dab over a very... More

I've stayed at plenty of Super 8s and budget hotels, hostels and youth hostels around the world. I read reviews on TripAdvisor suggesting that the place smells and I thought that it was probably just the typical TripAdvisor crowd who complain about everything. The hotel itself was pretty much as I was expecting for a budget hotel. The location was... More

The staff at the desk were very nice and professional. This is an old building with a small lobby, small rooms and small bathrooms, but that's quite common in San Francisco and we expected it. Also, the age of the building gives it character! The room was clean, air conditioned, and comfortable. The room was in the back and the... More

Everything on the east (towards union sq) is okay - room kinda reminded me of my apartment in... More
