South of Market hotel guide. Noble House hotel in South of Market, San Francisco

"I'm going to preface this by saying I've stayed at many Riu's over the years and they are usually lovely. This one was not. Upon arrival I was greeted by a very rude front desk attendant. She informed me that if I really wanted a King bed (yes that's why I booked one) I would have to be on the first floor (annoying but fine). She put me in the room across the driveway immediately next to the front door so I heard literally every single person that drove in and then walked in. I was woken up about every 30 minutes. The room had some serious issues including a sink that didn't drain (I told the front desk this after the first night but nobody ever came to fix it), lights that constantly flickered, a shower that was so narrow my hip was hitting the shower bar, and the bathroom so tiny I could not be in the bathroom and close the door to the bathroom at the same time unless I wanted to stand in the shower to close it. The included breakfast was luke warm at best and when I tried to take a cup of tea back to my room I was told I could not. I asked for a to go cup and the very rude woman told me no they don't allow that. The rooms have to go cups in them with coffee but I don't drink coffee and the only tea to be found was in the breakfast area. The building also had no ice machine and I had to go to the other building to find ice. The lobby area was also very dirty and every single table had some kind of debris on it. "

"It had a great location but noisy street, staff very helpful. Only 1 elevator and I was on the 8th floor "

"Room was very clean. Front desk was very helpful despite being very busy. Hotel is in a good location. Overall good experience."

"This property shows well online; however, I found the actual experience to be somewhat disappointing. Rooms are highly value engineered and very cramped. I booked a single king-sized bedroom with a city view for two adults. The configuration of the floorplan is such that the bathroom amenities are in the room's entryway. There are so many features crammed into the entry way it's impossible for two people to get ready at the same time. hangar space is limited by your suitcase, and your shower will humidify and heat up the entire room. Mind you, I live in a 650 sq ft apartment, so I'm fine with a smaller space, but this was verging on stifling. The rooftop restaurant was booked up and the host wasn't proactive about finding seating for hotel guests - so don't bank on enjoying that amenity if you book on impulse. The lobby bar was also closed on a Saturday night - luckily there are plenty of options in the neighborhood. The location is probably the best thing going for this location."

"Elevators could be renovated, nothing major"

"This place was ok. I arrived to my room my bathroom wasn’t fully cleaned and our fridge was leaking water and didn’t work. So we asked for a new room the gave us a new one right away which I appreciated. The hotel itself charges 60$ to park in the garage which they said they can deduct from deposit but you can pay cash only 30$ which the front desk was upset about when we were leaving. Overall the stay wasn’t the best but not the worst either."

"Loved the room with big windows over looking the city. Very convenient having a parking deck attached to hotel. Thanks for the hospitality."

"Room was very comfortable and the room had a lot of space. Beautiful view with a very courteous staff. Bed was incredibly comfortable"

"Hotel Fiona is a great hotel, location was great, the breakfast in the morning was tasty (quiche, Danish, and other sweets), the parking was great, the garage was very clean, staff were very helpful, the only issue was the bathroom light would turn on in the night, not sure if the sensor was picking up air coming from the vent and causing the light to come on, but otherwise everything was great, short walk to Union Square (0.6Mi), seemed safe, would definitely stay again."
