Pros:

I like my stay there after I was able to bring my own refrigerator my own TV music. I had my scooter at the time, but I pretty much provided all of the supplies that I needed to live comfortably for the 2 weeks that I stayed there, but other than that was a nice roof over my head and the fact that I was able to live without having to ask anybody for anything for 2 weeks out. Of my entire life was amazing.

Cons:

I didn't like the fact that II was charged 14.5% sales tax through the bookings.com app and then when I arrived at the hotel she proceeded to charge me an additional 17% sales tax on top of that which I know she charged other clients that as well when they were checking in, so I didn't appreciate having to spend an extra $40 on taxes that I didn't or shouldn't have had to pay when she was lining her own pockets.

Superzero hotel et pas superhero
Pros:

Situation centrale

Cons:

Incompétence du personnel qui nous a fait attendre 2h car les touristes qui occupaient notre chambre n'avaient pas quitté les lieux depuis plusieurs jours. Équipements vétustes (ascenseur) et simple vitrage en pleine ville. Superzero hôtel serait un nom plus correct

We arrived , they said your reservation is cancelled and the manager telling to the receptionist on the phone, their rat
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Staff are horrible, the rudest on earth who cannot take any decision not even a check in, without speaking to their manager who don’t want to speak with guests

Worst hotel i ever stayed, bad experience! Never again.
Pros:

No

Cons:

The elevator was broken, and one leg of the bed was damaged too, making loud noises and causing the bed to be uneven whenever someone lay down on it. There were no basic toiletries provided, and the walls were so thin that you could clearly hear conversations from the other rooms.

I already reached out to the management regarding these concerns, but they still did not provide basic toiletries like hand soap. I also immediately reported the broken bed leg because it kept making noises whenever someone was lying down.

We even decided to check out one day early because of our bad experience. When we returned the keys, the staff simply responded with “No English.” There was no proper receptionist in the hotel, and the whole system felt very disorganized and disappointing. We truly felt that our money was wasted.

When I booked this hotel, the reviews looked very good, which encouraged me to make the reservation. Sadly, I was wrong. The positive reviews honestly seemed fake.

This was our family’s first vacation in the US, but unfortunately, we had the worst experience at Superhero Hotel. There was no air conditioning as well. Never again!

Agridulce
Pros:

Armando, un chico que ayuda con el mantenimiento del hotel, 10 de 10. Estuvo siempre atento a nuestra estancia y nuestra comodidad. Si nos vamos con un buen recuerdo del hotel es sin duda gracias a él.

Cons:

El sistema de llave por bluetooth falla a veces y nos falló una noche a todos en una de las habitaciones que teníamos, no pudiendo entrar ni dormir en la habitación por la que habíamos pagado. Tras pasar la noche como pudimos, el servicio del hotel solo intentaba justificar un supuesto error nuestro o de nuestros teléfonos, siendo 0 comprensivos y ofreciendo 0 soluciones o medidas compensatorias. Una pena que su actitud frente a este tipo de situaciones y que se nieguen a aceptar los problemas o a tomar medidas ensucien lo que estaba siendo una muy buena estancia.

Hotel con exterior cutre pero interior moderno y renovado con acceso al hotel y habitacion con Qr
Pros:

antiguo hotel comodore se ha reconverstido en un moderno hotel restaurado interiormente , la entrada en el hotel es a traves de un codifo qr que se descarga el dia anterior. Recide otro email con el numero de habitacion y oyto codofo qr pero falla y necesita que la recepcionista te de una tarjeta fisica para entrar por eso es inmprecindible estar ante de la 6 pm que se va la recepcionista o programar la entrada pues el hotel te pregunta a que hora vas a llegar para pasarse por el hotel a ultima hora de la noche,
Interior habitacion renovaada con cama y edredones buenos y muy limpio, ademas lejos los indigentes , es una zona tranquila y tiene a la izquierda un papa john pizza y a la derecha a 500 metros en la acera de enfrente parrot pizzeria (excelente pizza artesanal) y un poco mas adelante en la misma acera del hoyel un 7/11 , una phamacia (que son pequeños supermercados) y un starbuck.

Cons:

Nada mas hacer el check out me cobraron 5,65 dolares sin saber la razon y sin aviso. Tambien la retencion del deposito tarda un mes en devolverlo es de 125 dolares

Excellent option when visiting San Francisco
Pros:

The check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. The beds were extremely comfortable, and the heater worked perfectly throughout the stay. The location is also very convenient, with plenty of restaurants and markets nearby, and the area felt safe at all times.

Cons:

The only downside is that it’s a bit far from Union Square, especially for those attending RSA, and you have to watch out for homeless sometimes when scanning your QRcode, but if you can let it for quick access you are good, the system works perfectly.
