San Francisco Convent

Really enjoyed our stay at Senator Gandia. The hotel staff was wonderful and the breakfast buffet was great. They even had gluten free bread for my husband upon request.

The room was a claustrophobic box. No outdoor access, just a frosted window that overlooked the middle part to the building. I wasn't expecting much, but seriously, this was bad. The bed was rock hard, as well as the pillows. I got 0 sleep the 2 nights. The room had peeling wallpaper, stains and broken light switches. The bathroom was old and worn. They make you leave the key each time you leave. We noticed that the purpose is to save $$ and shut off the AC once you walk out. We returned to our room after a 6 hour outdoor excursion to find the AC DISCONNECTED. After 15 minutes of sweating trying to turn it on, I went down to the FD for help and heard them discussing which rooms were turned off. Seriously? They came up and got it working by going into everyone elses room on the floor (using the master key) and checking. Their explanation, which was untrue was that our neighbors has their AC set to heat and were controlling ours. Seriously? It is SUMMER. I tried to interrupt and say it made no sense but couldn't get a word in. Unacceptable. For breakfast you must reserve a time slot the night before and provide room # when you get to the "breakfast space". All they had was coffee, bread, prepackaged pastries, boxed juice and milk. Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else. I don't know how they have good ratings. See my pictures.
