Check in was bad, waited 10 minutes before someone was at the front desk. Parking lots were crazy tight and arranged oddly. Other than that, it was a decent hotel.

Hotel was fine; 3rd floor lounge and balcony were too small to accommodate more than 2 people; great value for tourist district given the guaranteed parking. No on-site breakfast but they offer local restaurant breakfast discounts. Would stay again.

We loved our stay at the buena vista inn! Everything was clean and easy, and everyone we interacted with was kind and helpful. The area felt safe and was walking distance to Ghiradelli square. We loved having our breakfast in the back garden each morning, what a lovely little hideaway! Overall, the space feels very cared for. We would stay here again for sure.

Disappointed
I’ve been to Buena Vista several times over the years, but this time the room wasn’t so good. First, the shower did not work. The lever was broken. The tissue box in the bathroom was completely empty. The clock in the room was not the correct time. The refrigerator made a very loud, annoying sound all night and we had to unplug it. Also, when we returned to park at the hotel after coming back from dinner, there were no parking spaces available except a very bad one that blocked another car from leaving, so I had to get up early to move it the next morning when someone else had left. It seems they are cutting costs and not paying attention to customer’s needs the way they used to.

Purpose of the stay was to get hip replacement surgery. Hotel staff were accomodating as stay had to be extended due to medical complications. On site parking was key. Only negative was Hotels.com extremely poor customer service following a site glitch. I would book the Buena Vista again just not thru Hotels.com
