Stanford Court San Francisco

Stanford Court San Francisco

10/10 Excellent
"This is a great hotel for the price paid, in the best neighborhood possible in San Francisco. Decor is a bit dated and common areas could use some freshening, but it will remain my "go to" for a quick weekend or overnight in SF. Nice hotel gym. Great neighborhood for walking and exploring. Less expensive parking available off site but near by (check SpotHero). Complimentary coffee downstairs is great quality and there's always a nice morning buzz around the lobby in the AM hours. Staff is kind and considerate."
