The Andrews Hotel

This victorian hotel is very charming and all the staff is very accommodating and knowledgeable. Because it is not a big chain hotel, the rooms are not all the same cookie cutter layout. I was traveling with my mother and both of us have some mobility issues. The room that we were originally booked in was one that had a smaller bathroom. Mary took notice of our needs and took the initiative to change our room upon our check in to one that had a little larger bathroom with grab bar. We really appreciated her attentiveness and our stay was much more comfortable with that added feature. The king size bed was super comfortable, the continental breakfast was good and the price was very reasonable. This was not my first stay at the Andrews Hotel and I look forward to returning.

We didn't ask for anything special, but everything went very smoothly. Easy check-in, room was ready early. Vintage era bathroom was very clean and the towels fluffy. Free safe and iron/board in room. Continental breakfast was very basic but conveniently laid out in the hall on each floor with trays you could load and take back to your room. An easy pre-breakfast, altho no surprise the coffee was pointless. Had a good meal with great service in the attached restaurant FIno.

Small room but was expected, and not our goal to spend much time in the room anyway. The tiny bathroom sink and glass shelf above it make it difficult and even a bit unsafe to wash your face. Like so many hotels everywhere, the shower temp can be adjusted but not the flow rate, always set to full-on gush, which is luxurious but a tremendous waste of water. Neighborhood a bit grungy/sketchy, but you knew that already, right? It's SF. Very convenient to all transit.
