Found this hotel last minute on the internet...was a bit concerned with several reviews mentioning location was bad...but went for it anyways because of price, central location, and continental breakfast and internet included. I am happy to have taken a chance because the hotel was just what we needed for our 3 day stay. The room was average size but... more

This hotel's star rating really should be much higher. Unfortunately, for the hotel, some of the streets of the surrounding neighborhood must bring down the rating. Of course, when you're on vacation in a strange or big city, you feel skiddish or paranoid because you're outside of your daily comfort zone. I was alone the first few nights of my... more

Breakfast is good too. Other reviews may mention of it location but I didn't feel threatened because first I know SF well, second I used Cova's... more

The hotel was an upscale attractive boutique hotel. The staff were very friendly yet most very uninformed of the city, nearby attractions, transportation and good restaurants since they were all new employees (hotel is new). The rooms were small but cozy with a Juliet balcony and nice upgraded amenities. Unfortunately, the rooms have no A/C and in place of it... more

Stayed here for one night as our previous hotel was fully booked for our last night. We read the reviews on trip advisor before we went about the location. I thought we would be ok and expected to see a few homeless people etc. Firstly when we walked down the road it was full of homeless people, not sure if... more

This hotel is within walking distance of pretty much all of the "sights" of San Francisco. If feeling too exhausted or full from eating at Pearl's to walk down to the Pier, the hotel has a free shuttle with scheduled times for pick up. I can't say enough about how helpful and wonderful the staff at the Cova were to... more
