FOUND Hotel Carlton, Nob Hill
"The Hotel was perfect. Which makes it even more frustrating. We had to check out the same day as arrived because there was absolutely no parking! I found an opening at a garage like 8 blocks away, but had to retrieve my car by midnight so we had to just leave. 2 nights paid and wasted!"

Hotel Julian
"The hotel is sooo old and it has only 1 very old elevator for the 7 floors, so you need to wait a long time each time you wanna take it. I stayed there for 1 night and the room next to me was so noisy and had to change my room. They were accommodating in this part but took them a very long time. ..."

Hotel Zeppelin San Francisco
"We had a great time at this hotel in the heart of Union Square. We were lucky to get a room towards the back on the sixth floor, so it was pretty quiet. The vibe of the hotel is great and the rooms were painted dark shades of black and dark green. Beds were comfy & bathroom was fun!"
