Shame, could’ve been a very nice stay

They are so strict with the check out time, and only one elevator working, had to wait for more than 5 minutes twice that morning, I requested 20 minutes for check out, after a 4 day stay!!!!

The hotel was good, happy with it mostly. Pretty old and dated room, climate control needs to be better. Protesters outside very early each morning. Not the motels fault but not great. Generally a good motel I would stay again.

The hotel has a unique lobby, it’s welcoming. The staff are friendly and welcoming.The coffee and biscuits are nice in the morning in the lobby. It’s close to union square, walkable to fisherman’s wharf, but you have to consider the steep hills,china town is walkable.

I had fond memories of this place from years back, and decided to give it another go.The place is OK, and the staff is fine. Parking is outrageously expensive. Pro Tip: Park yourself in the structure around the corner - it’s about half off the valet price. Disturbingly, Expedia double billed me for this stay, and the KPH manager is working with them to refuse a refund to me, even though the double billing isn’t my fault. Stay somewhere else if you can. And use Orbitz.
