Americas Best Value Inn Ext Stay San Francisco/Civic Ctr - San Francisco

Unfortunately I didn't check and there was no on site parking. The rooms where cold at night with an automatic heater. There where several guests including myself that asked for extra blankets. The lady at the front desk in the evening was very rude. When asking for an extra blanket she made it seem like the biggest task. She was also very rude to other […] guests that where asking about the wifi. The signal actually didnt make it to the rooms. Definately will not be staying here again. Read more

Me and my wife took a trip to San Francisco for our honeymoon. This place is right next to hobo town on market street, really scary, people we're asking us for money or if we needed drugs. The lady at the front desk was not helpful or really nice at all, the shower pressure is more like a drip, we literally couldn't sleep at all, there are no outlets, […] no air conditioning, not even a phone to call the front desk. That's fine if you want to be a terrible hotel but don't charge me 118 bucks plus 24 per night for parking, it's bs. I also called about the parking beforehand and someone told me there was a lot, nope. We ended up leaving at 7 am and checking in to a raddisson right outside the city, muuucchh better. Read more

We came to SF for a short vacation, we spent there 5 days and 4 nights, the hotel is in a very old building that includes the original elevator (actually works) and that makes this place to keep the charm alive. The rooms are pretty small (a king bed barely fits) and also bathroom is really small, but it comes with probably the biggest closet for luggage […] and clothes. Breakfast is pretty basic but you after all is just a starter for the day so you can go and explore the great food scene in SF. I must mention the place is fairly clean. Please note they tell you to park anywhere on the street or to use the nearby parking lots, however the price of this options are the same as the valet (24.00/per night) Read more

This is a very old building but very well kept. It has an Old World charm.

Excellent Location, Friendly Staff, Comfotrable Room, Yummy Breakfast :)

the room and location served my needs for last minute notice of travel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel was clean, the beds were comfortable and for one night I suppose you can't ask for much more than that at the price they offered. However, with the "window" inside the shower stall that had nothing but a creepy view of water pipes, the $24 valet fee for one night (because there is nowhere else to park overnight), and no one but the manager […] being friendly at all, it does leave something to be desired. Not to mention the seedy neighborhood surrounding the hotel. I myself didn't have a problem with the area but some of my party weren't exactly comfortable heading out for a late night snack on foot. Even the friendly manager advised against it. Requesting your car results in a 20-30 min wait. The location was very close to our venue though, well within walking distance. That was a plus...

The hotel was alright, but it is not in a great part of town (Tenderloin). Had to ask several times to make sure our room got cleaned while we were out for the day. Very cheap which was great, but overall not the best experience. Accommodations in general were sub-par.

Over all our hotel was in a clean state but very old and small. There was not much room for a family of 4. Bathroom need some basic things like a few hook hangers to hang our clothes as there was no bench tops to put any of our clothing or toileteries, needed some kind of shelfing above the toilet to make it more convienent. The area it self is not […] so clean, lots of homeless in the city area. We were located not to far from the main city area, so you could walk to market street in about 10 minutes and public transport also close by. Hotel provided a very good breakfast that included, fruit, toast, cereal, hot pancakes and muffin and small packet of oakmeal. Staff was very helpful. Over all ok if you are on a budget. Read more

The staff was awsome! The bulding is old and not pretty at all. The elevator is compleatly awkard. The rooms smell old. The location is convinent but the neighborhood is not a good one. Good enough for the price we paid.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Hotel is O key. But the neighborhood is too bad. Lot of beggars. Hotel staff is not that friendly. they wont help you in any kind.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Hotel quality was satisfactory. Free Breakfast. Cheap rate. What else can you ask for? Wifi signal was kinda weak on 5th floor. Everything was okay except for the surrounding neighborhood. Homeless people is everywhere! No offense but groups of black people are always loitering around, smelt like weed, standing still or following you in the back. The […] streets here are filled with urine smell. I was in San Fran for 6 days, and my most pleasant stay was in Fisherman's Wharf. Suggestion : If you wanna save money and are not alone, stay here! Otherwise, go to Fisherman's Wharf! Read more

Great hotel for the price range, close to downtown for shopping and transit. And free coffee and tea who can beat that.

Well I knew for the cost it wasn't' going to be the Ritz ...but it had toothpaste still in the sink toilet paper was half roll.. and the floor was very dusty and dirty all over. No phone or radio .

When we first got there to check in the lady was no where to be found. We were very exhausted and really wanted to rest. It took awhile to check in. They don't take debit cards be advised unless you put down $100 deposit cash. Then the lady goes off and starts talking to my friend in Spanish! I know Spanish even though I'm black. There's no need for […] a private conversation cupcake. We were just tired and didn't feel like talking. Get over it lady. Plus you had us waiting for ten minutes. Very weird shower, didn't have breakfast, not the quietest place but I always wear ear plugs. Right by the Asian Art Museum so that was a plus. Elevator only goes up so if you were on the fifth floor like me prepared when you need to go down. Parking came out to $27 and they charged my friends card and mine. Waiting for the charges to go off. Read more

Thought I would get stuck in VERY OLD elevator. No Phone or clock in room with patched up walls. Furniture ready for the fireplace to burn. Kept suitcase in tact

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The wifi was out the entire 3 days we were there. The elevator was up and down and I don't mean lifting us from floor to floor. The breakfast was a good little snack to start, but they need more than just bread.

Shampoo box was empty for three days no sheet changed for 5 days there is mouse in food zone Car pick guy was very rude My Co-worker's room's mirror was broking when he was eating in the frist floor. if you want I provide the picture .

It was exactly what I expected from the pictures posted on the website. The building is a bit old and I could hear through the walls, but as a budget traveler I enjoyed the day rate, accommodating service, great location, clean room and continental breakfast. Save yourself the hassle and just pitch the extra money for valet parking, it's well worth […] it. In and out privileges will save you time finding your own parking in this tightly packed city.

This hotel was very out to date with building design, the room has a very old furniture, old windows that lets the cold draft into the room, heating system was out to date plus it wasn't fully working. The Wall were not sound proof, very noisy. As we'll as the windows, you can hear the noise going on outside in the neighborhood. The bed sheets were […] not that comfortable and they were using very old CRT TV screens with snowy receptions. The WiFi service was average for web surfing but had limited bandwidth for music or video streaming. They also did not have enough free outlets to charge multiple mobile devices. Read more

Seems like it is an old apartment building converted to a hotel. Nice friendly staff, decent quick breakfast in the morning, clean room. Good place to stay if you are just looking for a place to rest your head. No frills, no luxury, but good location to get where you want to go.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The sound isolation is not good. I heard loud noises from the street during the night. The hotel maid did not change the towel

Price is reasonable under hotel condition. Just be careful ur credit card deposit that tools more than 10days to refund to ur account and supervisor is lazy and unreliable, never do what u ask for!

Worst experience ever hotel was very unpleasant. First room we were put in was disgusting especialy the restroom.

Yes, it's cheap, but it's an awful neighborhood. I passed a drug corner a with a crowd of junkies two blocks from the hotel. The staff is friendly and helpful but the room was pretty dismal, complete with a small hole in the wall.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Hotel was very basic, no frills. They are having growing pains - e.g.: I had to hunt down my own hair dryer. My room didn't have one and lamp wasn't working. I asked front desk for hair dryer to find out mgmt didn't have enough stocked for every room - surprising as this is a basic need.

Providing good breakfast, but heater was awfully noisy like broken engine we were afraid to use it. It was cold night, since was rainy outside. Maybe staying again, but hoping they repair heater/air condition.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I am a frequent business traveler, I always stay at the lowest price available and most of the places are pure dives, this place however was not as bad as others in this budget range. Yes the hotel needs a lot of renovations but if you do not mind the inconveniences it is a good deal for being so close to the financial district. It beats paying 3-4 […] times that amount to stay in that area! The big minuses about this hotel are: it is in the Tenderloin so the neighborhood is quite bad but if you are used to the big city it is not such a big problem 2) There are lack of electrical outlets in the room, so you either watch TV or have the heater on, not both, problematic if you are a business traveler and need to plug in a PC. 3) The rooms do not have any dressers and the closet was lacking hangers 4) Parking is not free the hotel charges $24-28/night plus taxes 5) The cleaning crew does not replace used towels they simply rehang the old dirty ones. 6) The bed does not have fitted sheets, it is also very soft, if you have back problems not so comfortable 7) The wi-fi signal is sporadic, it was down have the time I was there. If these things are not important to you than it is a good deal. I would not recommend this hotel to families since the neighborhood is a bit sketchy. Read more

The hotel is older but definitely has the San Francisco "kitsch" feel. Hardwood floors and unique room shape and layout. Right in the heart of the Civic Center and very close to BART, which is what I used for transportation for this stay. There are homeless people but I felt safe and non-threatened. Frankly,there were homeless people in every part of […] the City I visited. For the price this hotel exceeded my expectations. I would stay again! Read more

I have never stayed in a hotel this bad. There was no one on site to complain to or help with our stay. I have stayed in hotels all over America and abroad and this hotel was my worst experience yet.

I would recommend this hotel to young people who just want someplace inexpensive to stay in San Francisco. HOWEVER, it's in the Tenderloin District and is not the safest of areas. I wouldn't recommend anyone be wandering around that neighborhood alone, but if you're in a group of friends and just want a place to crash, this place is fine.

The hotel is a bit dingy, but they are reasonably priced for the great location. Just 2 blocks from Path/Muni and major bus lines. Any only a couple blocks off of Market street. Can't beat that location for the price. The hotel room was very minimum but the hotel staff were great. The breakfast they provided each morning was sufficient and they had […] juice, water, coffee all day and even made soft, hot cookies for 3 hours each night. This hotel is trying really hard to make your stay comfortable. I would stay again Read more

We stayed for the SF Giants parade and you could'nt beat the location, it was right on the parade route. The Hotel was old with some modern improvements. The clerk was nice. The room had some improvements, but clearly more needs to be done. The sheets were clean and so was the room. My Husband and I did not appriciate the nose that came through huge […] thin single pain windows, but somehow the kids slept through it. If not for the noise factor I would stay there agian without question. Read more
