Gem of a hotel
Impressed. Recommend the avocado toast for breakfast. Near to everything downtown but still quiet. (For those who haven’t been to San Francisco, you may be put off by the zombie like homelessness but you would never know it inside this gem of a hotel).

Excellent stay!
Hotel was great and the rooms were clean. I would stay again. The hotel walls are notably thin. Regarding location, it’s close to union square, which is convenient if you’re a first-time visitor, but it’s on the edge of an area you don’t want to be in. We did not have any issues, but I wouldn't have wanted to be by myself in the area after dark.

The stay at the Clift hotel was good the rooms were clean and upgraded. The only issue was that they remodeled the lobby and the redwood room. There used to be great art work in the lobby and in the redwood room there was moving art on the wall. They should return the lobby and redwood room to the original way it was.

Such a disappointment
Room was nice but could hear the room next door like we were sharing it, but the overall service is dramatic, barely anyone outside of 3 people we have met were smiley and amicable, breakfast people are working like they are in jail, most of the staff is if not rude then very cold and self focus so difficult to have a discussion or just sharing anything, even to drop your car key is a challenge.
