The hype
Guests love the spacious bathrooms and helpful doormen but despise the 'destination fee' and nickel-and-diming on breakfast.

$200-450 / noc
Zarezervujte to, ak You're a Marriott loyalist who prioritizes room size over silence and doesn't mind being on the gritty edge of Union Square.
Prečo sa ľuďom páči
- Rooms are massive for SF (starting at 360 sq ft)
- Peloton-equipped gym is actually decent
- Corner Studio Suites offer killer floor-to-ceiling city views
Rýchly prehľad: A glorified conference hotel charging luxury rates while cutting elite benefits and sitting uncomfortably close to the Tenderloin's 'zombie apocalypse'.
Recenzované @randiwinter4thep2plife: We’re here visiting our grandkids and this room is perfect. The upgrade we got was such a nice surprise! I absolutely love how much space there is for our suitcases—makes settling in for four days so much easier. It’s bright, sunny, and feels just like home.
Čo povedali hostia
Reality check
One guest checked in December 2025 and found 'dry semen stains on the wall'—a shocking lapse for a JW brand property.
- You need a room big enough to do yoga in
- You're attending a conference at Moscone and just need a bed
- You appreciate a 24-hour fitness center with real equipment
Čistota a údržba
6.5
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Some guests report spotless rooms; others find missed trash or dust.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally good marble surfaces, but recent reports of 'stains on walls' are alarming.
- Maintenance: Aging. Peeling wallpaper and scuffed furniture are common complaints.
- Linens & towels: Standard Marriott issue. Clean but not memorable.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells like signature Marriott perfume; hallways can smell like old carpet.

Často kladené otázky a skryté tipy
Všetko, čo potrebuješ vedieť pred rezerváciou.
Is there a free breakfast for Platinum/Titanium members?
NO. This property is exempt. You will likely receive 1,000 points instead of a meal. Do not expect a waiver.
Is the Executive Lounge open?
Often closed or unstaffed. Even when 'open,' offerings are meager. Don't book a club room expecting a full dinner spread.
Is the neighborhood safe?
It's on the border. Mason St is generally fine, but walk one block west to Taylor/Jones and it gets sketchy fast. Stay alert.
Does the hotel have a pool?
No pool. Just a fitness center.
What does the destination fee cover?
$20 daily food credit, bike rentals, and cable car tickets. It's a mandatory 'coupon book' you probably didn't ask for.
Can I request a late check-out?
You can ask, but they are stingy. 11 AM is the standard, and they often push back on extensions.
Insider tipy
- ✨
The 'crescent window' rooms have significantly less light than the corner rooms—avoid if you hate gloom.
- ✨
Use the $20 F&B credit at the bar for a nightcap; breakfast prices are too high for it to cover a full meal.
- ✨
The 3rd-floor lobby atrium is actually a decent spot for a quiet Zoom call if your room is too loud.
5 vecí, ktoré by ste mali vedieť pred cestou
💡The 'wind noise' isn't just wind—it's the building's loose cladding vibrating like a reed instrument.
💡The '2 coffees' included in the resort fee might come from a machine, not a barista.
💡You are 2 minutes from Akiko's (world-class sushi) but 2 minutes from open-air drug markets.
💡The elevators are glass and offer a cool view of the atrium art, but they are slow.
💡Housekeeping can be hit-or-miss; inspect your sheets immediately upon arrival.
