This is a clean hotel in a dodgy part of town. My check-in was great, and the room was clean. The balcony is just a walk out - not enough room to sit - but enhances the room's open feel. I slept very well - the bed was very comfortable. The location is pretty good. it is a 20 minute... More

Thumbs up for allowing me an early check-in; little did I know that the Wheel Chair Accessible room that I was given for the early check-in would be absolutely abominable. Check out the photo below - "balcony" was a haven for the pigeons - totally disgusting, loud, and eerie. I also did not realize that folks confined to wheel chairs... More

Arrived a little early and able to check in right away. Super nice and friendly staff. The bed was bomb-so comfortable. I was very impressed with the room as well. Not a real great neighborhood, but one block away from BART, which came in handy. I wouldn't walk around at night, but the price and comfort of this hotel made... More

My wife and I arrived at the hotel on the evening of Wednesday 25th January returning from Hawaii. The hotel itself is excellent rooms and service good in all respects, perhaps except for the dinner buffet which was warmed up and not to my liking at all. My wife had the salad and did better than I. HoweverI think my... More

I stayed for 4 nights on business. The hotel has 3 big advantages: (1) Location - right at a BART station, next to Market street shopping centers, 20 minutes walking time from China town and from Moscone Center. (2) Good and reliable high speed free internet service. (3) Well equipped (altough small) Gym room. Room is reasonably furnished, and equipped.... More

My sons and I stayed here for a night when they went to a concert at the Civic Center. The hotel was modern and rooms were decent. The parking structure was small so getting my truck in there was a chore. The area around the hotel was just average so I did not want to park at the public lot... More

I selected this specific hotel for location, being close to 101 highway and local metro. I got a room on the 10th floor, with view to 8th and Market, very large and fitted with all necessary equipment. The down-side is the noise. The large windows do not close very well, they allow cold air and noise from outside to come... More

We stay in San Francisco often for business and you just can't beat this hotel. Very modern, attractive and centrally located. The most important thing for us is a good bed and this Holiday Inn has excellent firm mattresses. The neighborhood is not that great, but they have plenty of parking in the building. Staff is great and if you... More
