Hotel Julian

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the Halloween decorations, staff was friendly and offered late night food suggestions and even saw me struggling with a messy slice of pizza and ran to get me a napkin. Had a wonderful breakfast downstairs at the restaurant. I enjoyed it so much a had it again on the last day. Very reasonably priced. Good location for walking or transport to union square, ferry building, Japan town, china town etc. Room was nice and quiet which is rare for downtown. Shower and bed were great too, I was pleased to have a full closet which was used. Would absolutely stay here again."

FOUND Hotel Carlton, Nob Hill

8/10 Good

"For a comfortable stay that's affordable, this is a good choice. There's an excellent restaurant Eastern European, Dacha, for a little more elevated dining than the fried food places that were more common, and it's a few steps from the hotel front door. Delicious but more expensive than I would have preferred even for a business trip. But it was the only choice for a quick and decent meal. There is no business room, per se, for teleconferencing or printing materials, so every hour or so there is someone in the lobby doing a Zoom call. But the staff were courteous and helpful. They printed a few sheets when I needed them. The area is around the hotel is gentrifying. It's about a 30 minute walk to the heart of downtown. Plenty of coffee/sandwich shops nearby. Bring ear plugs and a white noise machine if you're a sensitive sleeper. The doors to other rooms on my floor could be heard opening and closing in the late afternoon through late night; overnight, though, it was fairly quiet. Most businesses diligently washed down their stoops and sidewalks, but you have to be careful where you step, especially if you're going for a run!"
