Europa Hotel San Francisco

Pleasant

Very good Liked: Daisy and Kumar!

It's not great, but a... Liked: The front desk was available around the clock. My window opened to some kind of atrium, such that there was no audible traffic noise. The ensuite bathroom provided all the basics and served its purpose well. The wifi was working well. Disliked: The room smelled of cigarette smoke, even though the facility is allegedly fully non-smoking; turning on the bathroom fan helped remedy it somewhat. The smoke detector in my room had been ripped off the wall, but was still connected (unsure if it still worked or not). There was no housekeeping, unless so requested. The front desk was unwilling to provide me with a printed receipt on checkout, and when I insisted gave me a printout of a screenshot of a PDF viewer (that had the relevant details in it, at least). Besides the bed, the only furniture in the room is a tiny shelf and a refrigerator (i.e., no safety box, no closet). The window in my room would not fully close.

Exceptional

Liked: Basic clean hotel in a good location. Not the Fairmont, but a good value.
