Clean, comfortable, without charm or character.
This hotel is absolutely fine if you need a comfortable place to sleep in San Francisco. For my taste, I'd prefer a smaller, boutique hotel. However, for a good bed and service, it's fine. We tried to get into the Drisco which sounds like it's fabulous but you have to book early to get in.
The Stanford Court is better than most of the downtown hotels in terms of location, as it is in Nob Hill, which is a short walk to downtown but also a nice neighborhood outside of the hustle and bustle.
