The hotel is very modern, and the suite size is generous. The location is excellent and feels very safe; there aren't many homeless people around, so walking the streets at night is not an issue. It offers great value for money. The restaurant is good, and there's also a small grocery store right across the street. There are plenty of dining options nearby, including a 24-hour restaurant just a short walk to the right, towards Union Square, which is said to have the best breakfast in San Francisco, with huge portions and good taste. Overall, fantastic value for money. I didn't get a chance to try the fitness facilities.

Rooms are a bit dated but overall large. You have to ask the concierge each day to get the $10 uber voucher sent to your phone. FedEx on site in the hotel. Gym is excellent with 2 cable machines, many cardio machines, leg abductor/adductor, chest press, shoulder press, row machines, and free weights up to 60 lbs.

Free parking is available, and there are some small restaurants conveniently located near the hotel. Bus routes 28 and 30, which cover classic sightseeing spots, are right nearby and offer direct access to Fisherman's Wharf, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Palace of Fine Arts. It would be even better if breakfast was included. The room was quite clean, but since it's next to the road, it can sometimes be a bit noisy in the morning and evening.

Overall, it was great 👍. It's just a few minutes' walk to Fisherman's Wharf, which is super convenient. The breakfast was a bit like English style, and it was pretty good too. My only minor complaint is that the shower pressure was a bit low.

Everything about this place was fantastic. The service, the cleanliness, the facilities, etc. The only thing that wasn't perfect was getting back to the hotel at night, because some of the surrounding streets seemed a bit dangerous, but that's not the hotel's fault.

The hotel is in a great location, right near Union Square. If you like walking, you can practically reach all the downtown attractions on foot from here. Interestingly, when you enter through the side door of the hotel, there's a cable car parked inside – I'm not sure if it's for display or still operational, but I did take a ride on a cable car at a station near the hotel later. Inside the room, beyond the towels and large bottles of shampoo, conditioner, and lotion, there was nothing else. Not even a disposable shower cap. There was no complimentary bottled water either. While there was a capsule coffee machine, there was no kettle, so I had to ask the housekeeper for one. The bar on the 46th floor has fantastic views; it's a great spot for a drink and to enjoy San Francisco at night. I didn't get a chance to use the pool, but I'm sure it's nice too.

Great value for money! If you're traveling solo in San Francisco and want to avoid hostels, this is a fantastic option. Check-in is strictly after 3 PM, and check-out is by 11 AM, but they didn't rush me even though I was a little late checking out. It's located in a quiet neighborhood.

Location: Excellent Value for money: Excellent (But only for solo travelers) If you think of it as a hotel, it's not great, but I think the biggest advantage is that for just 1.5 times the price of a guesthouse, you can get a private room.
