Everything was clean, functional; staff was polite and helpful. Excellent location for downtown. Good value for one or two evenings. The hotel itself could be a little old if you're aiming for fancy.

Hotel is dated older building as you would expect - great value, very clean, friendly staff - also a great location yet as u will find San Fran is still dealing with a serious homeless issue. It’s unnerving but manageable walking even at night. The homeless largely leave you alone, yet it is sad to see. And good to be aware.

We recently stayed at the Embassy Hotel in San Francisco and it was one of the best customer service experiences that we ever had. Every staff member—from the front desk to housekeeping—was genuinely kind, patient, and helpful. You can tell they take pride in treating guests well. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, and our room was comfortable and quiet. For the value and the level of service we received, this hotel exceeded our expectations. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting San Francisco!!
