Staff is very nice. Elevators need work, had to wait a while most of the one.

"Still in bed"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
This is an exceptionally clean and scrubbed hotel. I stayed over so I could go to a play in the building. It is a wonderful play and a fabulous way to indulge oneself. If I had a dog he could be indulged too because they have dog biscuits in the lobby. With sherry. My only quibble is paper cups. I do hate paper cups. The staff is patient and helpful. The art is imaginative. The setting is convenient. And did I say, the San Francisco Playhouse is grand!

Testimonials:
"Everything went excellent. I'm really glad I decided to go with both your company and Sierra Suites for accommodations for my wedding. People are now wishing there were more Sierra Suites around. They were even kind enough to offer the discounted rate to those people that weren't sure they'd make to the wedding until after the cutoff date. I have already referred someone to your service for a wedding she's planning in Michigan." R.S. - Parsippany, NY
