We stayed in the Layne Hotel at the end of our round the world trip and although it was pretty cheap considering the cost of San Fran and everything was within walking distance, we were disappointed by the room and the service. The hotel is old and the rooms are tired with few facilities. We had a shared bathroom room... more

As a woman who travels solo most of the time, it is very important to me to stay in a place that is easy accessible by public transportation. This is definitively the case for this hotel since it is only few blocks away from Union Square, BART, cable car and bus stop. The rooms are very clean and the managers... more

The hotel is led by an Indian couple. They both are very kind and friendly. They will be glad to give you useful informations, if you ask for something, to organize... more
