it is average

Not the cleanest room. It needs general cleaning. Walking distance to Union Square. $25 charge for parking. Retro style, but could be a little cleaner.

Been to much better hotel locations.

The best western is fine. it is everything else that really stinks which in turn reduces their ability to get call themselves a great getaway hotel. 1) room feels like as big as a broom closet. (but clean!) 2) it is not in a good area of SF, lots of transients, the smell of urine everywhere. ...need I say more. If you a woman traveling alone, I sure would not recommend it, I would not even want my children exposed to the area.

Good, but not great.

Overall I was happy with the room and service. I was not expecting to have to pay seperately for parking. Very retro styling, which may not be for everyone. My wife loved having the exercise facility.

Good idea, doesn't always work tho.

This was a solid place in a sketchy area....and I am from New Orleans where we have our own issues and I know them well! We never felt our lives threatened BUT we did feel very uncomfortable while coming and going from the hotel. We witnessed a drug bust (3 feet away) and a shooting by police (across the street) and were constantly bombarded by bums and I say bums over homeless in the sense that the city seems to encourage these folks, almost like it's a career! ANYway other that the sins of the city the hotel itself was just fine. Maybe trying to hard to be funky but very solid and the customer service was REALLY good.....those folks, all the staff, were always being asked questions and doing things for guests and they did it very politely and without complaining and without having a bad attitude! So KUDOS to the staff. It makes sense that a place like this with a smaller cost would not be at the top of Nob Hill. It really is NOT an attractive or even entirely safe area but the staff was VERY GOOD!
