8/10 Very good

This is refurbished property steps away from the Powell Street cable car turnaround and close to the 38 bus top. The queen bed was comfortable. The bathroom was surprisingly large for a refurbished building. The staff were very helpful and engaging. The complementary breakfast is standard Holiday Inn fare.

MARY ANNE, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Don’t stay on Saturday!

Okay, this looked like a great hotel and we were impressed when we got there. But at 10pm the Irish pub on the first floor had the live band start. For the next four hours we listened to U2 covers and other music that I’m sure was great if you were there in person. But when your family is trying to sleep it makes for a particularly bad experience. Finally, at two in the morning the band called it quits and we thought it was over, but then the fighting broke out and the police were called. They got it handled by around 3AM though and I got three hours of sleep eventually.
Christopher, 1-night trip
