"Great location, lots of dining options nearby, quick check in and check out. One issue is that I was charged parking even though I already purchased it as part of the expedia package. I will need to call the hotel.to deal with it."

"We appreciated the clean appearance overall. The staff were excellent in every way. The rooms were comfortable and clean. We really appreciated the lounge area for relaxing and playing cards. The coffee/espresso machine is a nice touch. We stayed for two days while sight seeing and waiting for our cruise. A great space to hang out between adventures! We also appreciated the restaurant attached to the hotel. Very good meals and staff. "

"The hotel was fine, handy to Union square, cable car and shops. Room was dark and window exterior really grubby. Lifts were slow and can slither down stairs if happy to do so, but not well lit at all. Protestors for Marriott and Westin I know were outside hotels control but were on both opp corners to us and with single glazed windows, we were awake at 6am with drums and chanting all day - been ongoing we hear for months.
