VERY thin walls. You can hear the guests in the next room snoring - even if their tv is on low volume you can hear it. Would not recommend if you are a light sleeper

Club Quarters Hotel in San Francisco
Amenities were great and location was the best. The hotel staff were courteous and the coffee option in the lobby was the best. Everything about this hotel is a flying star.
