I wasn't too sure if it would be good considering how low the price was but wow! It is a small boutique hotel. The rooms are small but clean, pretty and great for one person. The front desk is friendly and fast.

They also had free water with bottles to fill up. Overall, it was great.

Pros: Great value. Free Wifi.

Cons: check out was a little slow. Make sure you leave on time or else you get charge $35.

You can walk down to the Ferry Building or Financial district buildings. Close to restaurants. Would definitely stay again.

We stayed here for the weekend in February 2012. Got a great price through Expedia. Location is really good - it's in the Financial District and not on a busy street, so it's really quiet at night. Only a couple of streets over from the cable car. Close to Union Square, easy walking distance to North Beach, close to many restaurants. Clean room, small and narrow, but not cramped or uncomfortable. Bathroom was decent size with enough vanity room. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Staff was really nice and helpful. No complaints. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

This hotel is definitely geared for the business traveler, as the room are quite small and oriented towards work. Our room had a window, but it looked out onto a light well, which, being on the second floor, did not see a lot of light. It was a bit like an interior stateroom on a cruise ship, right down to the bathroom countertop, lack of a decent shower, and twin beds pushed together.

On the plus side, the pricelined rate was reasonable, and free internet access is provided, along with free bottled water. It's about a five minute walk to the subway and F line, and not too far from everything else. A pro or con, depending on how you look at it, is that this area is very dead on the weekend -- there are not many restaurants or even cafes open in the near radius; however, the Elephant and Castle pub is in the building.

I've never stayed at a Club Quarters before, so I cannot comment on how this hotel is versus others in the chain. This hotel has the advantage of being in an excellent location -- across the street from the Meridien Hotel and nearby the Embarcadero Center. Another plus -- it is reasonably priced. I paid $159 per night which for SF, seemed like a good deal to me. It's a downtown location, which can be a little dicey at night. When I walked by the hotel, I passed by a few folks who didn't seem like they had a place to stay that night. They seemed harmless enough.

The lobby is spare. The front desk folks direct you to electronic kiosks to check-in. They're helpful enough, but perhaps, working with you at the front desk is against the rules. The kiosk spits out a key and a sheet of paper that tells you where to go. Up the elevator and to the room you go.

Security is good. The elevator will not go up to your floor without your key. It's a nice touch. when you exit the elevator, you pass by a closet with stuff you might need (iron, ironing board, coffee, pillow cases, etc.) and a clever purified water dispenser. Above the dispenser is a rack with plastic, disposable bottles (eco-friendly they are not, perhaps, but convenient) that you open (seals are intact), fill, and close.

My room was quite a bit away from the elevator (three turns). Not a big deal except when dragging an ironing board.

The room was big enough -- double bed with a desk, small bathroom (shower only), small closet, and a comfortable chair. Small flat screen, but high def. A nioe view of a window facing mine, so scenery was not much to look at. The bed was comfortable (though the duvet cover was stiff and not very soft. Great pillow. Towels were okay. Toiletries were okay.

As for amenities, they had a big lounge with three open computers, lots of couches and chairs, enough coffee and tea. It lacked newspapers, though. When I asked for one at the front desk, i was pointed in the direction of the lounge, which had none. When I asked why, I was told that they purchase six (6) newspapers for the entire hotel. Okay...sure, it's a minor detail, but annoying.

It has a fitness center, but I never saw it so cannot comment about it.

Breakfast, if desired, is located next to the hotel (access through the lobby) at a pub. did not try that either.

In summary, really good location, great price, adequate hotel.
