it is what it is, an inner city downtown hotel, international category of 2 or 3 stars. our room was very quiet. WiFi was free but at times low signal. Beds were clean and no bugs detected.. Bushy Street made a safe and clean impression, something you cannot say about the roads a few blocks south, namely Turk, Powell, Geary... More

I stayed at the Mayflower Hotel and found it to be quite satisfactory and will be staying there again in April as I found it very convenient to everything. The room was larger than average and it had lots of storage space plus a bathroom. I would recommend it highly for the average budget traveler. More

I was pleasantly surprised by this place! I paid approximately $100 per night (shared with a friend) - which is the same place that we were paying for our dump of a hostel in LA (a dump of a city). For this price, we got a very spacious room complete with a kitchenette, a full bathroom, and a walk in... More

This was our second stay at the Mayflower after 2009. The location is just perfect. It´s about a 10 min. walk to Union Square and the famous Cable Car that brings you to Fisherman´s Wharf is 2 blocks away. The hotel is quite old and some tiles might be broken but that´s part of its charm. The room had a... More

I booked direct with the hotel in September and got a good rate during the busy AGU meeting in December. Bush is a bit far from the Moscone Center where the meeting is held, and a Metro pass pays off quickly since riding the cable car up the hill is a good idea, especially if carrying a laptop. Nice breakfast... More

We went to San Francisco to visit our son for Thanksgiving. He does not have an apartment big enough for us, so we stayed at the Mayflower where we had been a couple of years ago. For $103 including tax and parking we had a nice room with a little view. Beds are sometimes a problem for us, but we... More

This place is like a little apartment in SF. The lady and I came here for a special getaway, and everything about this place was awesome! Got on the fifth floor on Bush street, high enough from the noise but still a pretty view! People who work here is amazing as well! More

We got to the city with no accommodation orgainzed, our taxi driver recommended the Mayflower. We gave them a buzz and was offered a rate of $124 inclusive of tax. Was a bit eager to see what this hotel was really all about since I didn't do much research on it, but everything was certainly up to par. This small... More

We loved our stay at the Mayflower Hotel! The staff was extra helpful, answering our many questions and offering great suggestions. (Even provided a Muni-Pass for us!) Our room was fine (a little warm, but it was a near record-breaking temp. that day) and we loved the mini-kitchen/bar area. Our breakfast was a wonderful start to the day. Great restaurants... More

The location is good and provides parking. There is no air conditioning and hotel looks a bit old but overall value for money. More
