We had a great time staying at the Grove! The area was phenomenal with a lot of great walking areas, neighborhoods, restaurants, and bars. The only thing that was inconvenient was that our water pressure in the shower was nonexistent. It was at a very slow drip, which made it hard to use.

The property is in a quiet neighborhood and the staff are very responsive and proactive bin terms of communication. The property is an old, beautiful home, but the room was updated and modern in terms of comfort and convenience. Nice bed and nice linens made everything very comfortable.

Great location

We loved this location, walking distance from the Painted Ladies, Alamo Square park, and restaurants. We had no problem finding street parking within 1 block of the property. The place was like staying in a private residence, very cozy and clean. We will go back.

Kind & convenient

Amazing stay! This is the exact kind of place you want for a weekend getaway. Walkable neighborhood, on the bus line, comfortable bed, nice bathroom. Corner stores for snacks & beverages. And the HELD our bags, even after check out on a rainy day- so we could run across town and get to an event. Very kind & convenient.

Great location and Cozy

Comfortable room and bed in a great location. The parking garage is a reasonable 10 minute walk away, about a half mile. Eddy's Cafe is a great restaurant nearby, and there's a lovely park at the end of Grove St with the famous Painted Ladies. The area was quiet and felt very safe.
