Hotel has character with pluses and minuses

Good location a block from the Embarcadero and the Ferry building. Nicely updated bathroom, comfortable bed and nice linens, towels. Very old building and the floor of room is very sloped!! Maybe not all that way? I checked in late evening and didn’t want to ask to switch! The floor above creaked when the hotel guest walked around their room!

Great bay bridge views if you can get the right rm

The front desk staff, Juan and zashi (?) were excellent and treated us so well. The bay bridge view room was perfect. Pillows were too think/big, but other than that, a great stay!

The location was great. I loved the room which was bayview with so much to see. There were several annoyances: bathrobe and towels with holes in, curtains that wouldn't open properly, bad carpet stains, a toilet that wouldn't stop flushing without the handle being jiggled about every third flush. Staff in general very warm and friendly.

Disappointed—Not a Boutique Experience

I booked this hotel expecting a charming boutique experience, as advertised, but it fell far short of that description. In hindsight, I wish I had stayed at the big-box convention hotel for my conference. The room itself was a major disappointment. While housekeeping was fine, several issues made for an unpleasant stay. The HVAC blower had a persistent squeaking noise that continued into my third night, despite requesting a fix. The room lacked carpeting, giving it more of a budget motel feel rather than a boutique ambiance. The shower handle worked well, but water flooded into the bathroom. Furniture was visibly worn, switch plates and the thermostat were pulling away from the wall, and there was a frustrating lack of accessible outlets. The bed was extremely soft, making it uncomfortable for a good night’s sleep. The one positive was that the room was quiet—no street noise or disturbances from neighboring rooms. However, that alone isn’t enough to bring me back. Given the misleading description and subpar experience, I won’t be staying at this property again.

Our guest has stayed in Griffon a few times and all previous stay was good. Unfortunately, this stay was unpleasant and we would like to bring to your attention. He shared the following, "The room I had was not good at all! It was so small that there was no room for a chair or desk to work from. In addition, the bed was sitting on top of a metal frame that made noise when you moved, I also had to request an extension cord to have my phone near the bed. It wasn't good. In hindsight, I should have requested they change my room. My room number was 205. I hope moving forward I can stay next door at the other hotel or at a minimum, a better room at the Griffin."
