Economical option near Union Square in SF
Nothing fancy and an older property, but very comfortable and well-maintained. Adjoining restaurant is great for routine breakfasts and lunches. Clean, with pleasant staff at front desk. My choice for comfortable option in central SF.

Beautiful building but bordering rough area
The hotel is a beautiful old building near many shops and restaurants but unfortunately borders an area where many people experiencing homelessness frequent. While we never felt unsafe, there was trash and human excrement on the sidewalks the entire stay. The rooms were beautifully decorated but older with some signs of wear and tear. Overall I would still consider it a good value for the price we paid but in the future would not stay in this part of town again.

Diamond in the Rough
I am taking time to comment because Hotel Spero is a hidden gem. We stayed despite earlier reviews that it was noisy outside and there are lots of homeless. The noise is being caused by a hotel union strike. Once in our room, it was pretty quiet as they were apparently confined to certain hours to protest. The homeless are basically on the edge of this property’s location, mostly in the Tenderloin. That area has always been an area of great homelessness. An ongoing issue for CA and the rest of the country. The Spero is beautiful and well-maintained. They have lovely staff, bending over backwards to give great customer service. The rooms are small, comfortable, well-appointed and modern. Their restaurant, Jaspers, is run by a GM who is focused on the customer, as well. Parking is in a garage next to the lobby so doesn’t get much more convenient than that. We will stay at the Spero again.

Convenient with cute rooms
The hotel is generally fine and centrally located with an independent feel. The lobby and halls looked a bit older than expected with a not great looking, but not busy pub vs restaurant downstairs. It is also at the edge of the Tenderloin so you will get the usual characters and dirtiness on the street. That said, I walked to Moscone Center/Yerba Buena Center daily (12 min) for a conference and heading toward Union Sq vs straight down to Market is a nicer route. Staff was nice and friendly. The lobby was generally nice with work stations, free coffee and tea in the am and a water machine for drinking water. The room was cute, we got a free upgrade to a King room (not huge but reasonable size), and it seemed renovated and clean. Seems to attract a lot of tourists from around the world who were friendly. There were protests at the Hilton across the street, when we stayed, so it was slightly noisy, but there were no protests at our hotel and the windows mostly blocked the noise! It seemed to be a citywide protest at the big hotel chains only.

Avoid spero hotel, they keep your deposit no matte
The bed was uncomfortable and they kept half of my security deposit without telling me why. When I tried to reach them, I stayed on hold for fifteen minutes and never got to speak to anybody. No parking offered either.

2/10 Poor

Never Again.
I had a terrible experience at this hotel. When I tried to call to let them know I will be late to check in, it took us calling the hotel 7 times in order to get a hold of someone. Once we got there, while checking in, they informed us of the protestors across the street that have been banging trashcans and sounding off bullhorns starting at 7am and lasting all day and night. This should have been an email to mentally prepare us for what was happening. I talked to them about switching rooms the next day but ended up staying in the room that I was in. On the last day of my stay, I went to my room that evening after being away the entire day, and my door wasn't shut, they left it open with all my valuables in there. There are a few additional things that happened which I will be emailing the hotel directly about, but I will never stay at this hotel again and there needs to be accommodations made for the experience.

Nice Hotel
Nice Hotel. Most of the staff was friendly. The manager in charge of housekeeping was not friendly - he was filling in at the front desk and didn't seem happy at all about having to do that. It's obvious that he is not a people-person and needs to be kept away from direct contact with customers.

I would suggest they allow you to cast from a phone or laptop to the TV. I was preparing for a work presentation and that would have been very helpful. Most hotels allow this so I would think the Spero would want to be competitive. Not a huge deal if on a pleasure trip but was very inconvenient in this case. Other than that is was a great stay.
