Aida Plaza Hotel

In the middle of it . Nice staff. Tiny rooms

It was really close to the station. It was a little bit cold in the room because there is no airconditioner.

位置很好在市中心，交通也方便，離超市不遠。很滿意。

stayed here for two weeks for two years in a row and will definitely be coming back a third time the pool is so big and always clean food is amazing and not expensive the rooms are always clean the bar staff and waiters are very polite and fast the entertainment team do loads of different activities for the kids and the adults there is two water slides for children’s entertainment and all of the staff are lovely people probably the best hotel i’ve ever stayed at

I did stay at this hotel in July 2019 and at their regularly posted rates, they are clean and a good value for the rates charged. I booked a confirmed room for $110 a night on Agoda on June 13, 2023 for three nights. Around July 15, the Aida Plaza informed me that the rate was too low and since my dates of September 20-23 was high seasons. They demanded $190 per night take it or leave it. This was a 72 percent increase on a confirmed reservation! I left it and found a much better deal closer to Downtown SF. Message is: be very careful booking this hotel. They do not honor the rates they confirm to you. Perhaps they have small print that they can make these capricious pricing changes. If so, they are an outlier!

We stayed here for a week. We knew it was close to The Tenderloin. We knew there were a lot of homeless around. We knew it had no frills. We booked a family room that had two double beds and our own bathroom (lots of places this old have shared bathrooms). The room was huge and comfortable. Yes, everything is old, but spotlessly clean. The staff were great. Very friendly and helpful. The state of homelessness is enough to make you despair, but, no-one ever hassled us. Every now and then someone would ask for a dollar. If you don't respond, they just move on (unlike Rome, where you just about have to push them away from you while clinging to your bag so they don't pick pocket you). We had a good look around San Francisco - honestly -there are homeless people everywhere. It isn't this hotels' fault. The staff constantly reassure you that you are safe - and you are. The police presence on the corner of Market and 7th is constant. There is nearly always a police car parked across the road. Aside from that, Market St is always busy with (non-homeless) locals and tourists. I don't know why everyone bleats about leaving the key at the desk. Personally I like it. It is one less thing I have to worry about losing when I am out all day. Plus you get to have a chat with whoever is on the desk. The desk is manned 24/7. They usually lock the front door, especially at night, but instantly open it when you arrive. The big bonus is that every conceivable transport option is right outside the front door. 25 mins on the F street car which goes to the end of the piers for $2.50 if you have a Clipper Pass. Bus straight to Haight-Ashby. BART station straight to the airport, or anywhere else. There is a huge Whole Foods market a block up the street with hot food you can pick up for dinner as well as a couple of cafes in both directions. It would have been nice to have a fridge in our room, but there is a communal fridge downstairs and our stuff was perfectly safe in there. The walk to Union Square is about 5 minutes. The furniture in the hotel lift lobbies is amazing. Spoke to the owner who told me it was all stored in the basement and he has had it all restored. The entrance lobby was a bit cluttered with pallets of paint. Apparently they are going to renovate the area behind reception into a restaurant. That would be a bonus, especially for breakfast. We would stay here again.
