If you decide to stay here, be prepared to hear the sound of planes taking off and landing—even from inside your room. The noise is quite loud. The hotel doesn’t provide earplugs; they’ll simply remind you that it’s close to the airport and say, “This is the choice you made.”

Was surprised when an $8 nightly charge for parking was added to the bill . I have stayed in most of the hotels in the area and have never been charged by any other. There is no shortage of parking. The hotel should disclose this charge before you check in.

Worst bed ever

Everything was fine except..... The bed. It was literally a bed that is made of cardboard. Similar to a display bed in a store. It was the most uncomfortable bed I have EVER had at a hotel. I would never stay here again for this reason.

Don’t overlook Hotel Nova

San Francisco hotels were fully booked. I finally found Hotel Nova and just took a chance. It was delightful. The best part was how nice and helpful they were. Kenny, at the front desk helped with my UPS pickups despite her being busy with a full house. Everything was clean. They are getting up to date a little at a time. It kind of surprised me but everything was very clean and the mattress was wonderful. I would encourage you to try Hotel Nova, a smaller but very nice and well run establishment. Also, free breakfast! Will definitely stay again. The joy and kindness shown more than makes up for the older fixtures!

Guest services we received was excellent! The room was clean and neighboring occupants were considerate with noise levels even though there was a rave going on that weekend. The provided breakfast was serviceable. Would definitely stay here again.
