The Aida Plaza is an Old-Style Traditional Hotel in the heart of Downtown San Francisco. That Area of Market has become increasingly scuzzy over recent years, and I know that many people are put off by the numbers of homeless people near to the entrance (although none came near to the actual hotel entrance during my week there). Once you put that out of your mind, the Aida is a good basic option for the city - and very good for the price that I paid! The room was large, very clean, and the bathroom, lights, tv etc all worked perfectly. The room that I was in (505) was quiet and I got good night's sleep. The internet was easy to connect to and fast. The staff were friendly, and quickly got to know my room number (you hand your key to them when exiting the hotel). They must have a hard job as they have to open the front door for each guest entering (the front door is kept locked). I had no difficulty gaining entry to the Hotel no matter what time I arrived back after a day/night out. Bad points - no tea/coffee facilities in the rooms, which would be a plus, or room service, but I wasn't expecting this. I also liked the "faded glory" and overall feel of the communal areas. The lift/elevator also worked throughout my stay. Overall, i was pleasantly surprised.
