I loved the king room, which seemed like a small apartment. It was very cozy. My stay was for 6 nights; the bed was not comfortable for that extended period of time. I probably would not have noticed if my stay had been shorter. The cleaning staff was less than desirable: I asked that my room be cleaned on day 3 and the maid, hung my dirty towels… Read more
I loved the king room, which seemed like a small apartment. It was very cozy. My stay was for 6 nights; the bed was not comfortable for that extended period of time. I probably would not have noticed if my stay had been shorter. The cleaning staff was less than desirable: I asked that my room be cleaned on day 3 and the maid, hung my dirty towels back up that were on the floor, and did not change the sheets on my bed, which had dirt from my clothing. I was sitting in the lobby and the older guy that worked the front desk began to antagonize me: "Are you waiting for someone? Are you waiting for a ride? Why are you sitting here? Me: I have a room here. Do you want to see my license and look my room up? Him: No. You've been sitting there for a while. Me: No let me show you my license so you can look my room up because I don't want no mess. Him: No that's okay. But he didn't hesitate to take my license and look my room up either. Of course he wasn't my color. Everything else was great and the staff was friendly and helpful, including helping me super glue my glasses that I broke. :-) I would stay again because it is so close to the trolley, trans and bus line; it made it easy to commute and I save a lot of money not having to Lyft everywhere. Buy the $47 pass if you are going to be there any length of time. Read less

Strategic location for transport with the cabel car around the corner . Accessible to shopping areas and food . Came for a conference so Moscone Centre was 7 mins walk away . Room was pleasantly equipped except no kettle and a light above the closet will be better . Overall no complains .

Very comfortable small hotel room, although with limited space, in a prime Union Square location. We had previously stayed there years earlier when it was known as the Monticello Inn. The staff was exceptionally attentive and welcoming. We enjoyed our stay of three nights and would return again. AAA+++ experience.

I would highly recommend the Hotel Abri for your San Francisco holiday. The hotel is situated in a great location. The rooms clean and comfortable. The amenities are great. The staff are super friendly. You are only a short walk from the Union Square cable Car.

I'm so glad I opted for this hotel, it was clean, well located and quiet. Upon arrival we were upgraded to a suite, which was MUCH appreciated, and given a few treats for the room, such as a bottle of wine and some snacks. The room was clean and tidy and well equipped, we didn't have to ask for anything to be brought up. Our only downside was the desk staff (aside from Steve who was lovely, chatty and gave us a warm welcome). Other staff seemed disengaged, not rude, but not as welcoming as they could have been. Would stay here again without reservation. Read less
