My friends and I will be out and about 98% of the time, so we dont want something super expensive if we wont be there for anything but to shower and sleep. We'll be fine with a decent motel or small hotel in a safe area.
A hotel/motel that isnt on Orbitz would be great- as they may have better rates if they arent posted all over the internet. Any help with be appreciated. Thank you!!Visting San Francisco with 2 friends in September and need a reasonable/clean/safe Hotel or Motel?
I would suggest hostels. They have plenty and they are great rates. I can't think of any of the names right off hand, but if you look up San Fran Hostels, you'll get a list, and I suggest calling them rather than booking online. Of course, these are mostly full of college age students, so if you're older, you may not want to check them out. My husband recently stayed at the 480 Hotel and thought it was excellent, but it was probably on Orbits...Visting San Francisco with 2 friends in September and need a reasonable/clean/safe Hotel or Motel?
The place I always put my visiting friends is the Hotel del Sol on Webster Street in the Marina.
It's a sweet little motel, nice people, cute furnishings. All the rooms are above the street (parking is on the first level), and the area is surprisingly quiet for being so close to Lombard Street.
And a plus is that it has a pool. Since you're coming in September, it'll most likely be warm enough to swim.
Reasonable rates and San Francisco don't go together. Call AAA and get a list of hotels. The only place that you will find a cheap rate is in a very bad neighborhood.
Good luck and enjoy our beautiful and very very expensive city.

How dirty are hotels and motels? Do they really clean them? I just stayed a a Holiday Inn?
When I was checking out and and we were carrying our stuff out I watched a maid go into the room across the hall strip the bed throw the blankets and pillows on the floor change the sheets spritz the bathroom sink and leave. Is this the Norm? Was she just lazy? It makes me sick to think about the filth I slept in.How dirty are hotels and motels? Do they really clean them? I just stayed a a Holiday Inn?
I worked briefly in high school and college at a Ramada Inn and yeah that sounds about right. We were told ';If it don't look dirty leave it alone';. And no hotel or motel washes the blankets, or bedspreads or pillows each time some one checks out. They would wear out and fade too quickly. I know the maids were mostly searching for things to keep not cleaning. They were looking for dropped wallets, change and jewelery people would leave behind. Its sad but true. These places are prime breeding grounds for dirt and germs. People would let their dogs sleep in the extra beds or they would have sex on top the bedspread and you just wouldn't believe that filth in hotel rooms.How dirty are hotels and motels?

After reading those answers, I'll never again stay overnight in the Holiday Inns and the likes......Better save a bit beforehand and stay in a 5-Star *****First Class and up Hotel instead !!

We stayed in a 4 star hotel earlier this year that was filthy.
Actually we left after the 1st night and they wouldn't refund our last 3 nights stay.
The sheets were stained, the blankets were also stained and covered in other peoples hair - ewwwwwww, the floors were thick with dust all around the edges, the dishes had food stuck to them, the walls had big dirty marks, the list goes on......
We called the manager immediately and he didn't want to look. He finally came the next day and apologised. He said he could not refund what we had prepaid for the next 3 days.
We checked out as we were so upset and booked into a cheaper, cleaner hotel up the road. We checked the room before we handed over the credit card.
I photographed it all and wrote a letter to the management of the hotel chain. They apologised and offerred me a 10% discount off my next stay, but no refund.
My advise:
- Always have a look at the room before you hand over money or a credit card.
- Stay at a reputable chain.
- Ask your friends and family for their recommendations.
- If you go to Australia NEVER stay at a Breakfree or S8 Resort Hotel.
You can find filth even in a 5 star hotel!
My family and I have always stayed in Sheraton Hotels or Westin Hotels because since my dad is sooo picky well he says that the good life is always in the 5 star hotels..... not true....
It all depends on the staff that they have..... she might have been lazy... but you can also see that in a 5 star hotel.... i have, every time i get in the room i check everything from the sinks to the bathtub... under the bed the sheets... everything! and there has been like 3 times that i have found hairs, weird stuff in the carpet.... even under the bed... i have found Qtips .... seriously.... im not satying that its everyime no it has been 3 out of like 100 times in my whole life.
But all im saying that it depends on the person who clean the room.... my sister friend works in a Holiday inn in Las Vegas and she tells us everyting they do to keep the rooms clean.... its tough...but she gets it done... so i wouldnt generalize.... just next time.... do check everything!!! you might even get a discount or something for free =0) if you find something....
but dont worry.... if you didnt see anything then you didnt sleep in filth

In Florida what's the closest hotel/inn/motel to disney in Florida and the least expensive?
The cheapest motels close to Disney are on highway 192 either east or west of the Disney south entrance (although you couldn't walk in)
The actual closest is the Knights Inn Maingate where you should be able to get a room for under $40 - they have a shuttle to Disney that goes a couple times a day and the rooms are very basic but clean enough.
The cheapest hotel on the Disney lot is the Pop Century and costs from around $85 for this you get access to Disney transport and the rooms and public areas are generally nicer than a cheap motel.
Depends what your budget will stretch to - if you are going to spend all day in the parks a cheap crash pad is all you need. The attached website has maps and discounted hotels.In Florida what's the closest hotel/inn/motel to disney in Florida and the least expensive?
close and inexpensive are relative terms. The closest hotels are the Disney parks and the all star resorts are similar in cost to those outside the park - except there is better transportation and extra features like extra hours at the parks for Disney Guests.
I've stayed at a Days inn that is at the end of Buena Vista Drive and it was low cost BUT bus transport (that you paid for) was iffy and if you wanted to come back to the hotel say for lunch - nonexistent. Ever since that I have stayed at the parks.In Florida what's the closest hotel/inn/motel to disney in Florida and the least expensive?

What Hotel/Motel impressed you the most when you were on a vacation and Why?
I love a small hotel in Santorini Greece. The Icons hotel. I like it and I spend some days there every year. It's a very good hotel with a breath catching view of the caldera and very good room's decoration, many facilities and very very good service. Ideal!What Hotel/Motel impressed you the most when you were on a vacation and Why?
The Old Cataract Hotel in Aswan, Egypt. A very traditional and 19th century feel. Service is in the same mode. A sun downer on the veranda overlooking the Nile with the sun setting and the feluccas plying the river is spectacular. Your imagination carries you back in time in a very gentile manner.What Hotel/Motel impressed you the most when you were on a vacation and Why?
waterway village hotel..its amazing hotel 5 stars..the owners are so friendlies, and its incredible spectacular swimming people , a lot Jacuzzis very impressive decoration,, everything its black and white,,,the people its so friendly,, great areas and lot attractions in west palm beach, i remember some stars in luxury cars..beauty memories
The Victoria Park Plaza in Amsterdam. It's very old and luxorious, but has a bit of creepiness to it; if you stay in the old wing. We had a suite, and had a great time. Great views, great location.
