Great stay
One of the best hotel experiences I’ve had- went into the city for a nearby music event and planned to bring my own car to which we paid an additional $45 to park in the gated garage with in and out privileges. Very clean and comfortable beds, four pillows per bed (very cozy) and a microwave room downstairs we used to make store bought popcorn. There’s a CVS vending machine and a snack machine too.

Whenever I stay in San Francisco for an overnight event, the Holiday Inn on Van Ness is my favorite hotel to stay. It’s ideally located near transportation and has an outstanding restaurant. The customer service is also top notch. I strongly recommend the Holiday Inn to anyone who plans to visit the City by the Bay.
