“Easy walk to Moscone and Union Square”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

Using our Marriott points, this hotel was given the same rating as the Marriott Hotel 3 blocks away. I would not put them in the same category. The hotel was a nice typical Courtyard. Our room was big enough & clean enough, but lacked character. Our the view from our 16th story east-facing room was of the 16th story of the building across the street. Try for one that faces north or west. Noise could occasionally be heard from activities in the hallway & other rooms. Breakfast not included and quite pricey at the hotel, but there are a lot of restaurants nearby, including a Starbucks in the lobby. It is in the SOMA area and is close to Moscone Center and Union Square shopping. Parking was quoted at 45.00 (typical for SF) but it is a very easy exit to the freeway. We are seniors and it was a 15 minute walk with baggage to the ferry to Vallejo which cost us about $12.50 each round trip.

Room Tip: North or west view

Flew in for 2 days to watch NYG beat SF in NFC championship. This hotel is in a convenient location. BART and muni just a few blocks away, walking distance to AT&T park. Cab ride to any other main part of SF just a short ride away.

“Great Location But Overpriced”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

The hotel is located in SOMA close to the Marconi center and it is not far from the financial district. There are plenty of good places to eat around it.

The pillows are uncomfortable and bed is just ok. The WIFI is horrible, very poor quality. Go downstairs and use Starbuck's,

“Convenient in downtown San Francisco”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

An all over great Hotel to stay for your mid week trip for visiting the city or your convention center activities. Hotel features many amenities that will suit leisure such as business travelers. Friendly staff. Tidy and clean rooms. Ask for a room above the 9th floor for a excellent view of the city. Hotel features a inhouse bar/restaurant/starbucks. it has a basic small workout room and a Pool and hottub on the second floor.

Room Tip: Ask for a room above the 9th floor for a fantastic view of San Francisco !
