The Herbert hotel was perfect for our one night stay. It was close to the rental car office and walkable to lots of shops and restaurants. The downside was there was no mini-fridge for our cold food. I did like that we felt safe with the locked key front door. It was quiet and clean.

Awesome experience!
My flight got in earlier than expected so I explained this to the front desk, expecting to have to pay an early check in fee,however they checked me in early with no fee.The whole check in process was so quick and easy and the staff are very friendly and helpful as well as the rooms are very neat and clean.I will definitely be returning to the herbert hotel!!

Chose the Hertbert hotel for a cost-efficient place to stay. Location was perfect and room was ok for the price but the thing that ruined our trip was staying beside a longtime resident who was yelling and laughing at all times of day and night. It was tiring and terrifying.
We tried to get a different room but due to a huge conference happening in SF we could not do anything than put in our earplugs.

A real bargain in the off season ($75 USD/night). It is very bare bones, bathroom/shower down the hall, no room service and a small basic room but the bed was comfortable and it was quiet, and you can't beat the location...
