The hotel is very run down. The room was very dark and stuffy. I didn’t sleep the first night because there were so many noisy air conditioners running. We didn’t use ours because when we turned it on it seemed to just start circulating allergens. The bed was quite comfortable but the shower wasn’t great. The location is good. Front desk person was very nice. ##### Caroline Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Pamela Apr 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Cute and convenient In SB for a concert.

The room was clean as a whistle. The Presidio is advertised to be a little bigger and more luxurious than it actually is, but that’s a minor thing.
