That was my second stay at The Mosser (I found it on a previous convention visit to SF a few years back). The location is ideal for conventions at the Moscone center, and also close to Powell Street station (on the BART line from SFO airport), Market Street and Union Square for bus, streetcar or cablecar to Fishermans Wharf etc,...

Was looking for a place to stay in April for a conference. The "official" convention hotels were pretty spendy for my budget and at The Mosser I was able to get a suite for less than the price of a regular little room at the other places. I think they only have one suite; it is on the 3rd floor.... More

Now I was a bit apprehensive when I first booked this hotel. I must admit I was being cheap about it but man was it the best decision I made. The staff was amazingly nice. The rooms were clean, bed was very comfortable and most importantly NO BUGS!! The rooms are tight spaced but once I got over that it... More

The price of this hotel and its location makes it difficult to pass it up. Powell St station for BART, tram to fishermans wharf around the corner on market street and strolling distance to union square makes the location perfect for a San Fran base. My room is small but perfectly formed and has fresh towels, toiletries, bath robes and... More

Found myself on a spontaneous trip to see the city and needed a place to sleep and park my things while I discover SF. The Mosser was the perfect place for a 24 hour stay. It was right in the price range of a nice boutique hotel and had all the right amenities. The hotel was clean, staff was beyond... More

As others have noted, the rooms are compact, but not unworkable. I did find myself deeply amused at trying to brush my teeth, as it took some pretzel-like twisting to get my face close enough to the sink-- but it was funny and not irritating or impossible. The beds are comfortable, and even though we had a front-facing room (4th... More

The rooms are small, essentially only for sleeping & I shared bathroom/shower facilities, but if you are visiting SF on vacation (wouldn't really consider this place for business), why would you want to be in your room otherwise? The city is amazing & this hotel does its part, offering clean, updated rooms at a very reasonable rate, with helpful staff... More

The Mosser may not be everyone, but it sure is for me! ... a very unique spot just south of Market and a block from The Moscone Center, so any folks hitting San Francisco for a conference should check out this gem. I say it may not be for everyone because the rooms are quite small, but they are totally... More

Our business uses The Mosser for any of our clients visiting from out of town. Even at a moment's notice, the hotel makes sure that we have the rooms that we need. The staff is polite & very accommodating. The Mosser is in a great location close to shopping, restaurants, & public transportation (BART, taxis, & buses).

The location is excellent. I actually stayed at the Marriott across the street last time I was in San Fran (for $60 more per night), so, I knew exactly where I was staying. The rooms are tiny. I knew this too. I actually wasn't as freaked out by the size of my European-style queen as I thought I would be.... More
