Thanks.

Sadly that trip got cancelled, so I didn't even get to go. This happens a lot with my work trips unfortunately. I'll update it in that thread.

Is the trip above a business trip? Are you plans firm? Are you able to commit to a non-refundable reservation at this time for this stay?

This trip is for pleasure, so I am going for sure. I wanted the area, because it's close to BART and close to a friend's place. I'm hoping to get within a half to a mile from his place if possible. Booking it will be dependent on location.

For each of the properties above, if you click the 'See all' link do you see more amenities than what you've included in your post?

They're mostly the same... but not the same. NOTE how in your first post each listing only has FIVE amenities, but in each of the above there are SIX ;) HOWEVER, i still believe there are more for the 3.5* USE property, this is what i see after clicking the "See all" link under the amenities:

Hotwire.com 3.5-star Hotel in Union Square East - Moscone

Boutique

Smoke Free

Fitness

Restaurant

Hi-Speed Internet

Blind Accessible

Deaf Accessible

Free Internet

Room Accessible

Bathroom Accessible

Handicapped Parking

Roll-in Shower

Do you see all of the above for the 3.5* hotel on your won search? (for the 3* i'm seeing the same SIX that you are)

[theotheragentm]

I do see what you're showing now that I look at it. Does roll in shower mean it's not a regular bathroom?

[thereuare]

The above is not indicative that you'll be pre-assigned to a handicapped/accessible room, HOTWIRE has begun to show all handicapped/accessible amenities that the hotel offers, not necessarily those of the specific room that you'll be assigned.

Just like with any reservation, you could receive a handicapped room (if by 'chance' and when you check-in nothing is available), but the amenities showing above doesn't increase the odds of you receiving that type of room.

For the 3.5* property my guess would be the Orchard Garden Hotel... i don't have any insight on the 3* property given the limited number of amenities shown (and what is listed is very common for the area)
