Family Get Away
Our room was clean and smelled fresh. We had a junior suite which was perfect because we had our son with us. There’s a pony wall dividing the small living area with a fold out couch, where our son slept, from the bedroom area. Both areas had TVs. It was the perfect set up. Also, they have a little marketplace dining area for snacks, breakfast sandwiches and coffee/tea. It was a perfect grab and go before leaving for the day. We were close to the train station, so it was easy to go to the city.

A great hotel
Overall, I am very please with my stay at Grand Bay Hotel San Francisco. A very quiet, safe, and secure place to be. I had no worries about my vehicle being vandalized ir broken into because of the area the hotel is located. Next trip to SF, I would definitely stay at this same hotel. Staff are all friendly and accomodating. Thank you.
