"Ate at the restaurant and both my friend and I got sick.has to take it easy the next day. Both of us ordered the spaghetti and meatballs. They changed the coupon so you can’t get beer, and the service just gets worse there. Doesn’t open till 7 to get a cup of coffee. This is the 3rd time I stayed at The Marker in the last 6 months and it will be the last time. I ended up paying $600 for 2 nights by the time you pay all the fees and valet parking. I love the lobbies and the rooms decor."

"Hotel Spiro is a great base to explore San Francisco. Links to transportation is so convenient making it very easy to get around the city, the iconic SF cable cars are only a few blocks away. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Free coffee available in the lobby every morning. We had breakfast at “Jasper’s” a restaurant/bar attached to the hotel, the food was just okay, but similar in price to other breakfasts available locally, we would suggest giving Jasper’s a miss and finding somewhere...
