Post Hotel, San Francisco

I liked the location, right in the downtown area, nearby shopping centers and cafes. I did not like the rooms; the room I had rented was big without a bathroom, only sink was provided. The walls were not painted properly, the funiture was used and appeared to be purchased from some "Goodwill" store. The bed stands wee ugly, the tabole lamps were shabby, the bed was old and the mattress was mussy, old, the box springs were cracking. The closet was small, the windows were big and uncleaned, with shabby curtains. The hallway carpets had bad smell, the toilets and shower stalls were dirty and werent cleaned daily. The staff was bossy,even the maids were needed to be tipped as they were complaining of low pay and too much work. The Hotel manager, an ugly, stupid portly guy was always in pursuit of having guys on his side either by some favors or sweet talk. The morning guy, another stupid portly guy, speaking the same language as of the manager, never talked in English discussing an issue related to guest. The linens were dirty and causing rashes. The coffee and soap supplies were either unwanted or sometimes none at all. The management: an Old Patel guy, always boasting off about India's progress and trying to show that he was doing a favor by renting the room to the guests though guests were charged full "advertised" price when they checked in. The woman partner always talked loudly shouting at the guest arguing when they complained about some issues they were facing with their "cheap labor" The young Patel guy never listened to any guest complained though cool and walked away whenever a guest tried to face off with thim If you get a bargain rate and would not complained about "heater" that often shuts off, and the elevator that often breaks down, then please go ahead and check in.

I have compared rates and stayed in many San Francisco hotels. If you can live without valet parking, minted pillows and room service, this hotel offers the best rate value for the money in San Francisco. The Staff was friendly and helpful, my room was spacious, clean and included cable tv, free wi-fi, and executive desk, closet, coffee and maid service. I am on a tight budget so I chose the shared bathroom rates ($204/wk tx incld. at the time) but my room still came with a polished stone sink and mirror. Hotel provided ice machine and on-site laundry room. Nicely located close to Union Square, Mall shopping, and trolley rides to tourist destinations in the Wharf.
