My stay at City Center Inn And Suites had some ups and downs. The room was clean and spacious, with a comfortable bed, which was great considering the price. However, the service was inconsistent, and I faced some issues with the facilities that made my stay less enjoyable overall.

I got a large corner room that was roomy and clean, but the amenities were a bit lacking. The bathroom had very low water pressure and the shower handle was a bit sketchy. Overall, it wasn't as comfortable as I'd hoped.

I found the staff to be pretty hit-or-miss. The check-in was smooth, but some staff seemed rude and unhelpful. I heard a manager being disrespectful to other workers, which left a sour taste in my mouth.

The location is about a 10-15 minute walk from Union Square, which is perfect for exploring. But, walking back at night felt a bit sketchy due to the visible homelessness in the area.

Breakfast options were really limited to just coffee, some sweet pastries, and fruit. I wasn't expecting much, but it definitely felt underwhelming and not very filling.
Facilities

The facilities definitely felt dated, and I had a few annoyances, like the elevator being down and the loud creaky bedroom doors. The lack of a closet was odd too, considering the size of the room.

I had a pretty mixed experience at City Center Inn And Suites. While the staff were friendly, the location had me feeling unsafe due to the surrounding neighborhood, which was crowded with aggressive individuals. The room was decent enough, but it didn’t quite live up to the photos, and I had some issues with cleanliness and comfort as well.

My stay at City Center Inn And Suites was a mixed experience. The location was great, as it was just a short walk from downtown, making it easy to explore. However, the parking situation was frustrating, and the breakfast options left much to be desired. On the bright side, the staff were friendly and the room was clean and comfortable.

My stay at City Center Inn and Suites was a mixed bag. The location was excellent for access to downtown, especially for my conference at the Moscone Center. However, I found the room to be on the smaller side and not the best in terms of sound insulation, which made it less comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful, but the breakfast options were quite limited and didn't set the right expectations.
Rooms

The room was clean and functional, though smaller than expected. Some fixtures needed repairs, like the shaky toilet cistern. Overall, it served its purpose, but noise from adjacent rooms was bothersome.

My stay at City Center Inn And Suites was honestly a mixed bag. While the location is pretty central, which is a plus, the overall experience left a lot to be desired. The breakfast options were pretty lackluster and there were some sketchy feelin' vibes around the area. For the price, I think I expected more from my stay.
Rooms

The room was simple and clean, but definitely smaller than I expected. I could hear conversations from neighboring rooms at times, which was a bit annoying. The bathroom was okay but could use some renovations.
Service

Service was hit or miss. Some staff were friendly and helpful, but others didn’t really seem to care much. There was one employee who seemed way too distracted to assist properly, which was frustrating.
Location

The location is close to Market Street and downtown, which is convenient for exploring, but the street vibe was a bit sketchy. There were a lot of homeless people around, making it feel less safe at night.
Dining

Breakfast was a letdown, honestly. It consisted mostly of packaged snacks and sugary pastries, not exactly what I’d hope for in the mornings. They started serving at 6:30, which didn’t accommodate early flights.
Facilities
5.0
The place could definitely use some maintenance. I noticed some dangerous wiring and it just felt run down overall. Plus, no elevator made it tough for folks with heavy luggage—or anyone with mobility issues.
