My standard Queen room was very basic. A room only large enough for a queen bed. It only had 1 nightstand and no desk. There was no art or decor. The bed was comfortable, but the springs in the base made noise every time you moved. The location was very convenient for my 1 night business trip.

Great little hotel. Felt safe as a solo female
Great stay, right by the Bay Bridge. Hotel was good, bed was super comfy. Everything was clean. The restaurant attached was lovely and the food was great. Only con is that there was no conditioner in the bottle in the shower but I had my own so it didn’t really matter.

This was my 3rd visit to Hotel Griffon. It’s a convenient location across from the Embarcadero and near Market. Plenty of public transportation around. The hotel itself is clean and quiet with friendly, helpful staff. Mornings are nice with decent coffee and muffins/pastries. I tried Perry’s restaurant after returning from the Hardly Strictly Festival and had a nice draft beer and well-made Reuben with sweet potato fries. Definitely worth a stop.

A very average place. Don’t bring a service animal. They make it difficult. It’s not cheap and has seedy hallways and janky elevators. Rooms are renovated, but something isn’t right.

Maybe keep looking in the area. This place is okay if you get a cheap deal, but their normal prices are absolutely not worth it. It's an old shabby hotel that has renovated the rooms. Furthermore, they claim to accept Service Dogs, but they make the process very complicated and follow you around like a hawk afterwards. Not pleasant. The bar downstairs is okay—some quirky fun bartenders. I say book The Harbor Court—next door, same pricerange, and way more pleasant.
