"Room had everything I need, area may be unsafe (heard someone breaking things outside on my second night), but that's outside of the hotel's control. For the price, everything was decent."

The Phoenix Hotel
"So glad this iconic spot is still open. The Phoenix Hotel and all their staff deserve every single good thing in the world happen to them. The TV in the room didn’t work but honestly I don’t even care cause this place just makes you feel at home."

Holiday Inn Golden Gateway by IHG
Hilton San Francisco Union Square
"Inside was fairly clean. The outside could use a power spray cleaning at least every week from the smell of urine. Luggage Staff was extremely helpful. Check-in Staff that helped me could be more friendly to encourage customers to come back. Overall stay was okay to good."
