Stanford Court San Francisco

Stanford Court San Francisco

8/10 Good
"The room was clean and large, and the bed was very comfortable. Two things I'd comment on -- one that the hotel can do something about, and one they can't: 1) the view toward the Bay from my room would have been tremendous, but the windows were so dirty I could barely see through them. And 2) there is quite a bit of street noise. I used a white noise app so that I could sleep, and that helped. The breakfast is generous and the food is good. The woodwork in the room was a little tired, especially in the bathroom. Overall this was a good value and a good location for what I needed."
