Have stayed a few days in this downtown hotel. Very satisfied. Like : 1. In downtown location, walking distance to everywhere such as Union Square, and yet it is in a relatively quiet area, less hectic. Very easy to walk to Moscone Center. 2. Free internet connection everywhere, in room and in lobby. 3. Has a Starbuck on site 4.... More

If you can get a good rate this is the place to stay as only a few blocks from Union Square. Also, the hotel has a indoor hot tub and pool which is very family friendly. Desk staff, valets, all very nice and friendly. Have fun!

We had a free stay with our Marriott Credit Card and decided to spend the night in the City. I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. It was clean and modern. We went the weekend the Bay Bridge was closed, so we took Bart in. It was an easy walk; about three city blocks. After we checked in (we were... More

I had plans to attend a convention at the Moscone Center. My colleagues were staying at the Inter-Continental which was much closer to the Moscone Center. I would say it is a 10 - 15 min walk. I knew this before booking and all is well. The service here is great, and if you get a room on the right... More

Using our Marriott points, this hotel was given the same rating as the Marriott Hotel 3 blocks away. I would not put them in the same category. The hotel was a nice typical Courtyard. Our room was big enough & clean enough, but lacked character. Our the view from our 16th story east-facing room was of the 16th story of... More

Flew in for 2 days to watch NYG beat SF in NFC championship. This hotel is in a convenient location. BART and muni just a few blocks away, walking distance to AT&T park. Cab ride to any other main part of SF just a short ride away.

The hotel is located in SOMA close to the Marconi center and it is not far from the financial district. There are plenty of good places to eat around it. The pillows are uncomfortable and bed is just ok. The WIFI is horrible, very poor quality. Go downstairs and use Starbuck's,

An all over great Hotel to stay for your mid week trip for visiting the city or your convention center activities. Hotel features many amenities that will suit leisure such as business travelers. Friendly staff. Tidy and clean rooms. Ask for a room above the 9th floor for a excellent view of the city. Hotel features a inhouse bar/restaurant/starbucks. it... More
