Hotels near Buffalo Exchange, San Francisco

Small, fairly attractive hotel in walking distance to excellent coffee/pastry places and about a 20 min walk to Union Square; a longer walk to the waterfront, palace of fine art etc. Room is small and bathroom is tiny but bed is comfortable. The windows open but there is no screen so if you open it it’s entirely open, though nothing flew in or out of our room. If you want fresh air and leave the window open though be warned it is loud and you will hear: trucks; cars; what sounds like garbage pickup; crazed homeless people screaming out of their mind for what could be hours. There was no maid service and the rooms are very close to each other but interior hotel noise wasn’t an issue as much as noise coming from outside the hotel. It looked clean enough but to be honest i didn’t feel comfortable walking barefoot in the room, just had sense whatever cleaning there was was likely kept at a minimum. Front desk is basically a young guy on his phone and luckily we didn’t need his help. Elevator is quaint but sketchy. But it was inexpensive and we got what we paid for in my opinion.

Well located if you are down to San Francisco only for a couple of days. Unfortunately the noise from the street (homeless was the main problem not quite safer if you are walking after the sunset) was very loud during the night. They tried to overcharge me with the resort fee that i have been paid already during my reservation with booking.com but of course on your arrival they don't double your reservation but they automatically try to charge you this extra. Please make sure that you check your bank account the day of your check out so the problem can be fixed in person. Our stay after all was ok. Not too bad for only 3 days.

I want to share my recent experience at this hotel, which I regretfully cannot recommend. The hotel has an attractive location but is marred by a lack of basic amenities and poor customer service. During our six-night stay, we discovered on the second morning that there was no hot water. We informed the receptionist, Andy, but were met with a dismissive and rude attitude. We were informed that there would be no hot water for the rest of the day, and this lack of basic amenities was for a total of three days of the six days of our stay. Please note that according to California Civil Code §1940.2, it is the responsibility of the hotel to provide and maintain hot and cold running water for guests. To make matters worse, when we requested to check out early due to this issue, we were offered no refunds as our stay was prepaid on expedia. Expedia told us that the property was to decide while the property said it was expedia.. As I am a hotelier myself, I know it is the hotel’s call in the end. We were offered a shower facility in a separate building which was very inconvenient as we had to walk out of our building and take elevators to get there.. This was not a suitable alternative to the basic amenity that we had paid for. To add insult to injury, at time of check out, Andy offered us only $80 as a refund on a reservation worth over $1500, what a humiliating act, we could not believe it! Better not to offer anything, because really it is a shame to offer this to people.. We were one of the many customers to complain, and we saw that the receptionists had no sympathy towards anyone.. Yes, all businesses are there to make money, but not like this. What they did is close to stealing from someone! I cannot recommend this hotel to other travelers, and I will continue to write on other platforms to warn people..

We stayed one night only to attend a concert at 'The Warfield', a venue next door. The neighborhood is a bit rough but the hotel is just next door to where we needed to go and it was the best option we found. The hotel itself is quite nice, modern, clean. No complaints. We stayed in the King Room with Skyline view. It had everything we needed. A fully stocked mini bar, some snacks. The shower was frankly my favorite thing about the room. We ordered burgers and a breakfast in bed and the food was fairly good. The only thing I didn't like was the mattress, it had a dent on my side of the bed and was a bit uncomfortable to sleep in. Besides that, we never heard any noise from outside. It was a Wednesday so I don't know if it's loud on the weekends. Overall was a good stay, great option if you're going to the Warfield. We left the car with the Valet, it was a bit expensive but again, easiest option. They take and bring your car when you need it. We didn't have to wait too long. As for walking around the neighborhood, like I said, it's a bit rough. So use common sense.

The staff are friendly and mostly can speak cantonese. The location was alright, difficult to find on the first day. Parking in SF is generally expensive. Room was dusty and the sofa give me rashes. However, the walk from Powell Station has a street of homeless people which I feel unsafe for ladies and young kids.

We chose this hotel because of the location for getting to the trolley, a Hop-on Hop-off tour stop, the local bus system, and the nearby BART system. For this it did not disappoint. The price is reasonable, and the hotel was very clean, and the staff was very friendly. From this, I digress. The noise level during the nights, was that a very loud level. All from external. Sirens, music, loud cars and trucks going by, garbage trucks in the middle of the night, quite a bit of yelling, and the like. Normal ear plugs did not help. If you stay here, you will need some heavy duty ear plugs. We get up earlier and the hotel lobby coffee was not ready ever before 7:00 a.m. there is coffee in the room, however if you need real creamer, you'll be out of luck until 7:00 approximately. Not a terrible review, just want people to be aware.

On the description it says the hotel opened in 2023, but it was actually an another hotel with another name before. It doesn't look new at all, it is rather in poor condition and outdated, only bathroom seem to have been partially remodeled. Aircondition doesn't work properly, and is very loud when heating up the room. Looks shabby inside too. Room was cold at night and doesn't get the desired set temperature. No a 4 star hotel, more like 3 stars. Service was good though and friendly receptionist.

Lovely hotel although we had an accessible room overlooking the courtyard. The shower was not suitable for anyone over 5ft 4in as the shower head was at that height. The air con was very noisy. The curtains did not meet at the join and so people in the courtyard could see in through the slit/daylight comes in. Lastly the room had a funny smell. But the bed was very comfortable. It was very clean. Our second room was on the second floor overlooking the marina and the road. You could hear traffic noise and people walking around upstairs but lovely bathroom and very clean. The staff were all charming and couldn’t be more helpful. The location is great for wandering around Sausalito which is fabulous. You also get 15% off the Firestation cafe which was just gorgeous! I hear that the larger rooms are stunning.

This place is beautiful located right on the water on the other side of the San Francisco bay. Not only is there a beautiful view of the city. But you can also see the Bay bridge and the Golden gate bridge very clearly. The hotel itself has been updated It was very clean, our room was comfortable and it is affordable. I would recommend a room with a view of the bay. There is a great aquatic park that the hotel is connected to which makes for beautiful walks and gorgeous sunsets I would definitely recommend a stay here.
