Hotel Review - Club Quarters San Francisco

I have stayed at this hotel a couple of times over the past two years. Its listed on many booking sites as a 4-star hotel, but its really about a 3.5 star. Its in a great location (corner of Battery and Clay ) near the Embarcadero center downtown. There are a couple great restaurants nearby including MacAuthur Park. The rooms are extremely clean and the front desk staff is pleasant and efficient -- and its usually the cheapest option in San Francisco when most hotels are sold out.

So whats wrong with it?

Well -- for one the rooms are TINY. Not just San Francisco/London/New York City "small" -- no, these rooms are -super- small. The bathrooms dont have tubs (which is ok by me). The hotel chain is really a "club" for solo business travelers and the rooms reflect that with the size and amenities.


On some reviews of this hotels, families complain about the size of the room and how the beds are doubles (not queens or kings). Well this hotel is NOT for families -- let alone two people traveling together.

The rooms barely fit the double beds and the desk (which is nice) also houses the small fridge and TV (hanging from the wall). There is free wireless, but it has always been extremely weak and only worked well late at night.


The bathrooms are very clean and updated -- but again, its tiny and really only made for one person. There is no bath, but it does have a big walk-in shower.

My main problem with the Club Quarters is that the walls are VERY thin -- you hear your neighbors late at night. Its almost like they are in the same room while you are trying to sleep.
If you are a heavy sleeper -- this might be an ok hotel, but if you are a light sleeper be warned!

Other good points: Starbucks on the corner, Nice city Park and Safeway nearby, clean laundry machines, and near perfect location.

I would stay at this hotel more often if the walls werent so thin.
