9. oo a night was wonderful but I would upgrade to a better location, just a little scary at night and had to hail a cab because buses at night wasn't safe because of the neighborhood near (tenderloin district) not convenient to the tourist things, so what you save in $$$ you could upgrade to a 3 or 4 star and come out with same spending.
