    great location
    easy access
    confusing check-in

    The location is perfect for exploring, especially with close access to the cable car and Moscone Center. It’s basic but clean, allowing us to relax after busy days visiting the MOMA and riding bikes to Fisherman’s Wharf.

    It felt a bit cheap and uncoordinated.

    Charming, Convenient, Cozy

    I loved my stay here! The location is unbeatable, just a few steps from Powell station, making it super easy to explore the city. My room was cozy and clean, and the small walk-in wardrobe was a lovely bonus for storing all my goodies.

    can recommend 😊❤️

    clean room
    broken tv remote

    Great spot for budget travelers!

    We stayed for a week and honestly, it was super affordable for the location. The standard room was comfy and clean. The bathroom might be shared with another room, but no worries, they can't access it from their side! Just a heads up, the remote for the TV didn’t work, but that’s no biggie. Check-in's at the Stratford Hotel across the street, which was a breeze.

    great location
    comfortable stay
    poor luggage storage
    homelessness issues
    lack of luxury amenities

    An incredible location right on Powell Street, just steps from major shopping and dining options, made this budget-friendly stay a fantastic choice. The spacious room was clean and came with all the essentials, including a clock, hair dryer, and refrigerator. Enjoying fresh French patisseries nearby was a delightful bonus. However, the lack of on-site luggage storage posed a challenge, and the presence of homeless individuals outside was noticeable. Despite that, the friendly staff ensured a comfortable experience that I'd consider again if I return.

    great amenities

    This place suits me perfectly, providing great internet access, flat-screen TV, and laundry services. I appreciated the 24-hour security. The staff once helped me find local delivery options, which was a nice touch. I'm definitely coming back for another city trip!

    central location
    seating discomfort
    limited common area options

    I truly appreciated the charming decor and accessibility of the Herbert Hotel. Its central location made it easy to explore nearby attractions without the need for extensive walking, which is a great advantage for senior travelers like myself.

    More comfortable seating options in common areas.

    My stay at the Herbert Hotel in San Francisco was quite pleasant. The central location provided easy access to local attractions. The room was cozy, though a bit smaller than expected. Cleanliness, however, stood out as a highlight. Perfect for a quick getaway!

    The location couldn't be better! So close to Union Square, making it easy to explore the city. The room was okay but looking a bit worn, and I wish there had been more cleanliness. 🏙️

    clean room
    broken window
    unreliable internet

    Clean and cozy common areas.

    I was very disappointed with my stay. The room had a broken window, causing excessive noise from the street that kept me awake. Additionally, the internet was extremely unreliable, making it hard to get any work done. I was also frustrated when the ceiling lamp was broken and went unaddressed during my entire visit.
