San Francisco hotellit lähellä New Conservatory Theatre Center

Plussat: The Japanese decor is calming. Nice neighborhood, walking distance to nice restaurants.

Miinukset: Room is oddly designed. TV not easily viewed from bed. And the bathroom is not typical -- I think it has a Japanese influence so perhaps it is a comforting design for those familiar with Japan, but for others it seems strange. A deep thin tub with shower, no shower curtain, then the sink in a middle area that has wall to wall carpeting, and then the toilet in another room that you have to step up and over to enter.

Plussat: - Very pleasant check-in experience - Attractive lobby - Attractive rooms - Nice area of town - Decent rates

Miinukset: - Exercise room is about what you'd expect from a hotel - Free WiFi is slow, urges you to "upgrade" for a fee

Plussat: Beds are comfortable and is in a good location.

Miinukset: Under renovation, the AC wasn't working so we had to sleep with the door open, which is loud outside

Plussat: Location, & staff.

Miinukset: Carpet in my room smelled.

Plussat: We liked the friendly staff. Rooms were clean and comfortable. I would definitely come back and stay with my family .

Plussat: Atmosphere, Location. A/C is perfectly setup. Great Shower/Bathroom combo

Miinukset: Room next to the ice machine and elevators was rather loud. Pillows felt used and hard. Bed was not comfortable.

Plussat: I liked that it was really close to everything, we walked everywhere and got to see everything we wanted so that was really convenient.

Miinukset: They had construction going on, yes they did stop at 5pm but it would have been since with out the noise.

Plussat: bar and restaurant were closed

Miinukset: rooms were nice

Plussat: - Quiet location - Deep tub - Free wi-fi

Plussat: The staff were the most friendly and helpful of most of the hotels I've expetienced. We stayed there due to a close relative being in Cal Pacific Medical Center unexpectedaly from out of the area. They were so accommodating and extended our stay when complications arised. The restaurant was great and we loved Bill the bartender. We never felt like we were not welcome. The shuttle to the hospital was invaluable and saved us money in extra parking fees. I would not hesitate to stay here again under similar circumstances. We also enjoyed the restaurants in Japan town. They were wonderful.

Miinukset: The only thing we didn't like was the road noise in the room. Our home is in an area that u Is extremely quiet so we are not used to city noises. Mew have traveled extensively and stayed in noisy cities where hotels are much quieter. I must say we are more sensitive to noise so take that into account. We would stay there again if we needed too.

Plussat: Bed was comfy

Miinukset: Employees were very unhelpful

Plussat: I appreciated the proximity of the facility to the building in which I attended a conference. I was able to walk there if necessary, or be transported with ease by colleagues. The rooms were clean and well-arranged. I was prepared for typical downtown noise and heard very little of that. I felt safe on the property.

Miinukset: My only criticism concerns the breakfast offered. I think for the price that perhaps a few selections could be added without "breaking the bank," e.g., a griddle or waffle maker or variety of fruit.

Plussat: renovated bed rooms with nice decor & comfortable bed; clean close to Hayes Valley, a true SF neighborhood

Miinukset: currently under construction, paint works going on resulting in smells & noise; NOT disclosed on web site prior to booking! close to projects; doors are open during cleaning/painting and homeless people wandering around the lot, resulting in safety concerns; no safe in room bathrooms need renovation, stained tub and toilet; 70s decor night staff rude, seemed to have little hospitality training/experience

Plussat: I like how the front desk guy told me, since I stay here so much I should know when they advertise free parking they mean some time or when available. But, I didn't know in fact it is the reason I stayed loyal to the motel. I feel more of an effort should have been made to keep my reservation, instead he shrugged me off and I un check in and stayed at the same if not better motel on Lombard for a lower price and parking for all there guests.

Miinukset: I didn't like the mis advertising of free parking. You should state limited free parking.

Plussat: The free parking and destinations within a few blocks.

Miinukset: Not much in the immediate vicinity.

Plussat: Decent hotel room. Comfy bed/pillows with very clean linen. Slight mildew buildup in spots in shower. Free parking, but limited. Park early and walk/take a cab. Over all would stay again.

Miinukset: Mildew in shower.

Plussat: Was pleasantly surprised by the room (everything is brand new) and by the end of 5-night stay it felt like home. Housekeeping does a great job. Rooms aren't the most spacious but it's perfect for a vacation where you'll only be in the room to sleep.

Miinukset: Breakfast could have had more variety. same stuff every day but hey it's free and that's a big plus in San Francisco.

Plussat: Very affordable price (except parking ). The hotel is within walking distance of all kinds of great places: restaurants, bars, Union Square, Japan Town, etc. The bed are big and comfy!

Miinukset: The ice machine was kind of hidden on the third floor. Kind of weird. Also, no fridge or microwave in the room.

Plussat: Front desk person was very helpfull.

Miinukset: Carpet with stains and smelly.

Plussat: Nothing

Miinukset: Everything. Especially the manager.

Plussat: Leaving the next morning

Miinukset: It was outdated, old, and dirty. The comforter looked like it hadn't been washed in years. There was a banana peel with a gnat flying around it left in the trash can that never got cleaned out before we checked it. I slept fully clothed. I could very easily see this hotel and the room have a rodent/bug problem. I would NEVER stay here again, even if I was being paid to.

Miinukset: The hotel has a funny smell. I didn't like it.

Miinukset: Bird poop on my car even though it's covered parking. Noise from garbage container cleaning at 10 pm and 7 am right below my room. Getting from parking to lobby is just sketchy.

Plussat: This place was rated 3 stars. We went into it knowing that. It met our expectations. Great location, clean, good price. Staff were excellent. The bed was surprisingly comfortable.

Miinukset: Nothing. Was exactly what we expected.

Plussat: The bed was exceedingly cozy, and the room was spacious. I don't know if all rooms are that spacious, or just the handicapped-accessible ones. The free breakfast was decent.

Miinukset: There was a strange smell I couldn't really identify, which first reminded me of a grandparent's home. When I returned to my family, I was told I smelled like a bandaid, and that was similar to the room's smell. Not unpleasant, just disconcerting.

Miinukset: The only thing I did not like is that the hotel os smoke free. The need to offer a place for guests to smoke outside

Plussat: The Opal is an older building with beautiful architecture and charm. To get into the lobby you have to be a guest, using your room key to unlock the front doors. I was so much more relaxed within the hotel with this added security. It is in an excellent location to good food and sight seeing and if driving, is easy to get to from 101 and they also have a private, gated parking garage! We will definitely stay at the Opal San Francisco in the future!

Miinukset: Would recommend curved shower rods to give a little extra room. Because of being an older building the electrical outlets are minimal and had to do some rotation of electrical devices.

Plussat: The staff was very friendly. The rooms were nice and clean. The continental breakfast was very good. And in a good location if you want to see the city.

Plussat: Price Staff Room

Miinukset: Location is not bat but could be better

Plussat: given the rate, good and comfortable amenitiea

Miinukset: scary to walk around at night

Plussat: Nice roof top lounge, rooms are nice always clean friendly staff

Miinukset: Ellis street has lots of people on sidewalks doing drug deals sleeping in streets and using drugs but it's a reality check and you need to be aware.

Plussat: We booked this hotel for the Haloween weekend. Despite being in the Tenderloin this was a really great hotel and we had a great stay. We didn't have any problems with the homeless people we had read about in previous reviews. It looked like there was a security guard in front of the hotel maybe making sure people weren't loitering. It was really easy getting an uber to get to where we were going.

Miinukset: It was hot. Like really hot in the room. I know that air conditioners are not very common in san francisco but... maybe they could have left the balcony door open or something. It made getting our haloween costumes on kind of miserable. There were a couple fans to use but they didnt really help that much. Also, our toilet didn't really seem to work correctly.

Plussat: The Staff was so kind, patient and helpful. They are what made my stay special. They are familiar with the area and local activities. We arrived super early and the staff held our bags, until we were able to check in, so we could start our sightseeing. The hotel was clean and we'll maintained. Great security and always felt safe (traveling as a mother and two teenage girls). Loved the shuttle service which was easily scheduled and on time. Room was comfortable and upgraded, which is hard to find in San Fran. WiFi was fast and no loss of connection. Highly rated and approved by teenagers. Housekeeping was great, efficient and cleaned room daily. Bottomline, I will stay again when I head back in September with my husband.

Miinukset: I'll say location as a con because it is the "elephant in the room" on reviews. You can't change location so there's only so much to say. The Thing is, it's not that bad. My daughters and I walked to public trans during the day and used hotel shuttle when we returned at night. No problems at all throughout stay. Area is what you expect from any major downtown area. There were homeless in front of the $400 per night hotels too so why pay more. Only "issue" I had was at the restaurant where you have your continental breakfast. They changed the breakfast options in January, which aren't reflected on the menu. No eggs, no potatoes and replacement of items are scarce. You can turn in breakfast voucher (reportedly worth $18.75) plus pay $8.75 and get the breakfast you were promised. That's seems like the voucher isn't worth anything because the breakfast is only worth $8.75. Eitherway, the oatmeal got me going in the morning.

Plussat: The desk and restaurant staff were very friendly.

Miinukset: I did not like finding out parking was extra, way extra. I paid almost 100 dollars to park Friday around noon until Sunday around 10am. With one out and return on Saturday afternoon. Seeing other hotels in the area with signs saying Free parking for guest and fee parking for public. Made me wish I'd stayed at one of them instead. Location is bad with crack and marriuana being smoked out in the open on the street surrounding.

Miinukset: They charged me $300 on a bogus charge saying we had extra people I our room. When I called and asked them about it, they refused to look into it and made me go through my credit card company instead. They didn't even notify me of the charges.I saw them on my credit card statement the following month. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!

Plussat: The hotel is nicely equipped and laid out. The room was nice, and I'd give the bed about a 5/10 in comfort. The staff was incredibly nice, saying hello to us every time we walked in, and goodbye every time we left. The included breakfast was fantastic, and that was a definite plus.

Miinukset: They didn't have HGTV - that's a must when traveling! The location was pretty rough. I read about other travelers complaining that the location was bad, but I figured they were exaggerating. Ellis Street is pretty rough - lots of homeless people urinating and defecating on the sidewalks, but if you just skip Ellis and walk down another street to your destination, you'll be fine. There were a LOT of sirens going by the hotel each night, but I think that might have more to do with SF in general than just the Tenderloin District. Some of the loud noises at night might have been gunshots, but they also might have been dumpsters slamming. Some people say they wouldn't walk around at night, but it's actually not that bad. The homeless shelters open some time in the evening, so the later you're walking around, the less likely you are to actually encounter anyone.

Plussat: Hotel itself looks nice, close to points of interest.

Miinukset: The area surrounding the hotel was extremely rough and unsafe.

Plussat: The hotel was very clean, room and bathroom are large, bed comfortable, and the staff was very helpful. The top 8th floor lounge was nice and relaxing. Overall for the area this was the best hotel. Shuttle service to local visitors sites as well.

Plussat: Free shuttles a few times a day. Staff was super helpful showing us best values for travel, food. Honestly can't say enough good things about the staff

Miinukset: Rough area known as the tenderloin. I didn't mind and there were younger women on the sidewalk at night but area may be off putting for some

Miinukset: No Air Condiioning

Plussat: Clean room, good staff, wifi

Miinukset: Bad area of town, had an issue with water pressure in our room, breakfast is strange and not good

Plussat: Great location and that's about the only plus. I'm not sure the room my boyfriend and I stayed in had ever been cleaned. The sink was clogged with someone else's hair and I ended up using their towels to dust the room myself.

Plussat: Good price, decent location

Miinukset: Shared bathroom, dirty carpets, stains on floor/lampshade

Plussat: - Helpful staff - Blocks from Hayes Valley/The Mission/CastroAlamo Square - Less than a block from bus lines, short walk to train - complimentary coffee in the lobby - budget friendly

Miinukset: Cheap beds and linens Cold shower in shared bathrooms Thin walls Can get pretty stuffy No elevator Loud neighbors

Plussat: Affordable, proximity to Haight-Ashbury and Alamo Park. Our room had a great view of the city.

Miinukset: Noise was definitely an issue, no sound protection from neighbouring rooms - the people in the room next to us were talking throughout the night (until 6am!!) and kept us awake All night

Plussat: The staff were all great ...... very helpful. The location is excellent. Away from the tourist area but within walking distance to tourist spots. A very nice residential area...close to many restaurants and cafes . It reminded me of many European hotels. If you like to,walk, this is the place for you

Miinukset: Outside road noise on Fillmore St. started early in the day. However after a couple of days we hardly noticed it.

Plussat: Inexpensive, great location, free all-you-can-drink coffee machine with good lattes, helpful front door staff, easy come and go, sink in bedroom

Miinukset: A bit shabby, lamp was brocken, carpet old, bathroom and shower down the hall and had to bring key card to not get locked out of room.

Plussat: I really loved how modern/chic-ish it looked. The room sizing was decent, if it's just you and one other person. That was what I intended when I booked my room. The maids are really nice and considerate. The free coffee/hot drink maker downstairs made the best early morning coffee! The manager was really nice, asked if I needed directions. The towels provided were really nice, helped dry us off really fast. Location is wonderful, literally a few blocks from the Painted Ladies and Alamo Square! The neighborhood it's in is also very beautiful if you like Queen Victorian Homes.

Miinukset: -The "shared bathroom" had rusty shampoo/conditioner hangers in the shower. -The sink in the bathroom was blocky and was just in the way. Really out of place. -There was a small stain on our bed sheets. -Room is stuffy. No A/C. -Walls are a little thin, especially if you have the windows open. -The window opens into this huge open center of the hotel, virtually everyone has their windows open as well, so the noise privacy was virtually non-existent. -You can see people in their rooms if your window is open. Particularly bad because of nudity. -The workers there are very strict and a little over-bearing. It was as if we couldn't have visitors just coming to our room. -Room is really small if you have more than two adults.

Plussat: This was my second time staying here and the experience was even better than the first. We got an outside facing room with an excellent view of the city (wish I could upload a pic). Clean rooms and facilities.

Miinukset: Pretty simple, shared bathrooms and such, but you still get more than you pay for.

Plussat: The location is decent.

Miinukset: We had no a.c. in the room even though the front desk confirmed there was central air. Also our ceiling fan did not work. The downstairs gave us a small desk fan which didn't help much. When we told them about our issue they said again there is central air. I told them the vents are open but nothing is coming out. They said they'd be up to check but never came and did nothing. I gave up. The Windows could be open but they do not open up directly outside to where air can circulate. It was cooler out in the hall than our room. I was disappointed.

Plussat: If you're a traveler on a budget and you're more concerned about the sights and sounds, this hotel is for you.

Miinukset: Bring slippers if you don't like dank bathroom floors. Bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper. The ventilation isn't good. The walls are thin too, so you probably shouldn't have sex here. Just saying.

Plussat: staff were incredibly helpful and surprisingly flexible. i had a few issues with my schedule that were completely my fault and they were more than accommodating. coffee was great, rooms were modest , prices were fare. i would certainly stay again.

Miinukset: front side rooms get a lot of street noise, but that's hardly a fault for being in such a large city

Plussat: It was comfortable, had a window view looking out towards Fillmore street. Cable kinda sucked but who cares, explore San Fran. Everything was walking distances, should try stacks its like half a mile away from the hotel. Affordable, but remember its a Mom and Pop kinda hotel not the best but you get what you paid! Awesome coffee machine they had, its 10x it's size and less simple than a keruge. We lobed our stay at Casa Loma.

Miinukset: The beds creeked, sink was in our room, whites sheets were rough. Towels are rough, toiletries are mounted on the wall in the room in a container, overall simple and self explanatory, me and the boyfriend did't really need to call any type of room service. Friendly people and we made a lot of noise in the day no one seemed to complain or had a fuss about the love making we were making haha, so yeah Casa Loma was cute not to much to complain about. BTW WiFi sucked.
