Really enjoyed this and would go back.
Pros:

The staff were very friendly and flexible. Very helpful with local advice. The pool was a small drop of tranquillity. The hotel was very central but excellent value considering the location. Public transport for getting about was very close by and easy to use by mobile phone. Our room was cleaned every day. Breakfast was exactly what was required to fuel up for the morning.

Standout Team - Thanks Sam!
Pros:

SoMa House was a standout stay, and it’s 100% because of Sam and the team. Their attention to detail and responsiveness were next-level—there wasn’t a single question that didn’t get answered, and their follow-up was spot-on. Baggage storage was easy and stress-free, which made our trip logistics so much smoother. Superior service—highly recommend!

Real San Francisco
Pros:

Stayed December 22-29 easy to find from the nearest Bart station a direct 20 minute service from the airport. The place is clean, tidy, very attentive staff especially the front desk. Tea, coffee, pastries, cake, fruit for breakfast in comfy chairs or take back to your room. Hotel situated in a perfect position for sightseeing away from the hustle & bustle but close enough to access all areas.

Pros:

Do atendimento da recepção.

Cons:

A limpeza do quarto não aconteceu todo dia, logo as toalhas foram usadas por DIAS.

A porta do quarto está com defeito.

Embora estivesse uma temperatura fria a noite, não tinha um cobertor disponível, tinha apenas UMA couxa de casal para se cobrir.

O elevador social ficou parado desde de o dia que cheguei até eu sair, tive que entrar e sair pelo elevador de serviço que fica na garagem.

Aquele café da manhã é uma VERGONHA, nem deveria levar esse nome, melhor se não tivesse, e PIOR, servem na recepção!! Nem uma mesa DECENTE temos pra sentar. Num "BOTECO" o serviço é melhor.

Alguns quartos estavam em obra, e o barulho e FALATÓRIOS não param. Descansar durante o dia foi IMPOSSÍVEL.

O hotel me EXIGIU um calção de 200 USD, o que já não gostei, e disse que devolveriam IMEDIATAMENTE após minha saída. Vejam isso, pois isto está completamente errado, vocês tem a obrigação de informar este procedimento NA VENDA. Na verdade me senti acuado e constrangido, agiram como se eu fosse um marginal ou bandido. Como a reserva estava PAGA, nem desistir eu pude fazer, pois JAMAIS ficaria num lugar que me tratassem assim, já estive DEZENAS de vezes nos EUA, a trabalho e a passeio, falo bem o idioma, e me pareceu uma atitude pessoal.

QUERO MEU DINHEIRO DO CALÇÃO DEVOLVIDO JÁ.
