Hotel Zeppelin San Francisco
"Funky, well-located hotel 2 blocks away from Union Square and the end of the Cable Car line. Coffee service not so great but the restaurant has breakfast you can buy. The room was good and not like a box hotel which we liked."

The Andrews Hotel
"Definitely an old hotel needing a "fresh coat of paint". Met the needs of quiet place to sleep, but lacked many amenities I expected. I guess maybe the pics shown didnt fully align with how small the hotel actually was. Stayed on business but probably would not stay on personal time."
