Don’t overlook Hotel Nova

San Francisco hotels were fully booked. I finally found Hotel Nova and just took a chance. It was delightful. The best part was how nice and helpful they were. Kenny, at the front desk helped with my UPS pickups despite her being busy with a full house. Everything was clean. They are getting up to date a little at a time. It kind of surprised me but everything was very clean and the mattress was wonderful. I would encourage you to try Hotel Nova, a smaller but very nice and well run establishment. Also, free breakfast! Will definitely stay again. The joy and kindness shown more than makes up for the older fixtures!

Stayed here for a festival weekend and the owner made my friends and I feel so welcomed at entrance! He let us in earlier than our original check in time, gave us food place recommendations, made us laugh, and most importantly made us feel safe. The rooms are nice and spacious (has a mini fridge & microwave) !!! I can’t even think of the words to use to describe how great our experience was. We will ALWAYS stay here whenever we are back in the area for more events.

This hotel was adequate for my family's stay in San Francisco. Rooms were small and we weren't able to get the water to stay in the tub, so my kids were forced to shower instead. Breakfast was adequate - mostly carbs with a little ham, American cheese slices, and boiled eggs. Staff at front desk were very responsive and communicated well. Hotel was clean. Neighborhood seemed quiet and safe, next to the 101 highway. Not much here other than a place to rest, but it did the job.

Overall the place was clean. You can tell they do try. Its an older building, a few spots on some towels or sheets, nothing that cant be swapped out upon request. The building was quiet, safe, offered parking for CHEAP in SF and they provide breakfast (I did not partake persoanlly, but at least it is included.) I really only had 2 complaints, the TV remote in my room hardly worked, up was left down was right, okay was the volume down. made no sense. My other compalint was that they only offer HOT water throughout the day. Luckily, there is an ice machine, but no drinking fountain, no bottle fill station. But they have a gym? They should look into a bottle filler for the gym room for sure.
