Older building that is kept up well. Rooms were a nice size with tiny bathrooms. Avoid room 214, as it is above a restaurant that stays open until 4am. Great value for an expensive city. Parking is extra(AAA...

Good

Very nice old hotel. The rooms were small, but clean. The bedding seemed new. The hotel sign was right outside of our window. It was lit all the time, but the shades in the room blocked out the light at night. The continental breakfast was...

Horrible

My experience at the Opal was awful. The location is great. The room was clean. But the staff was horrible! The guy checking us out did not know what he was doing and ended up charging our card way too much and the management would not return...

Great hotel for the price – Posted May 09, 2008
by Demetria15  (1 reviews)
   
         
Excellent
66 year old female with a luxury budget

First, what is "shocking" about $25.00 for parking your car in SF? We asked AHEAD of time, no surprises. This is a charming European type older hotel and the price is very inexpensive for SF--which I have searched out and could not find anything below $175 and NO parking! The hotel is convenient, has lots of snack places to eat close by and also a breakfast buffet in the morning. If you want luxury, go to one of the big chains and stop your whining about checking in on a day you didn't have a reservation then expect the world to stop for you.
