Grant Plaza Hotel 2024 Chinese NY Parade visit
-Ideal location for the Chinese New Year celebration close but not in the thick of the noise and busyness.
-The staff was not as friendly as most other hotels I stayed in, but they were there if you needed them.
The room was very small but had everything you needed. The one bad, awful point was the bed mattress-- hardest I've ever slept on. OUCH
-Overall, I gave it a good rating; I would stay there again when I revisit the San Francisco Chinatown area, but I would first check other hotels and price shops.

The hotel was really nice and the staff was friendly and helpful with the questions we had . They have a vending machine and ice machine on bottom floor . Aswell as a coffee machine and tea. The room did have a slight strange smell when we arrived but we just opened a window . I would stay here again

This is my third stay at Grant Plaza. I personally stay for staff and location. It is small, but location and staff make up for it. I will be returning for a fourth and fifth stay.
