comfortable hotel, with friendly staff. nice touches like free coffee, cookies, fruit and water available. Good base for exploring San Francisco. Bit noisy, the morning saxophone player was a bit of a surprise but the hotel did provide ear plugs! good value for money

Location is great and you have access to tons of bus, train, also very walkable but you have to watch out bevause there is lots of homeless near union square and downtown SF. I love the fact that they have water, tea, coffee 24 hours in the lobby. This is the second time I stayed in this hotel and I will pick this hotel again in future because of easy commute.

The hotel was lovely and had lots of charm and our room was clean. The only negative was that the parking situation was a little stressful since it is was in a structure a few blocks away and we didn't have easy access to our car during our stay. Other than that we had a lovely time.

I like that the room had a window made of glass. I also thought it was clever to put the faucet in the bathroom instead of beside the bed. The floor was perfectly level which prevented me from losing my balance. I liked the bartenders. Very personable.

It is a nice enough hotel and decent value but definitely very old in finishes and very small room and bathroom. The shower head comes out of the wall at 5’. Not great for most people.

Great little spot... free coffee and cookies and water and fruit nice touch. The rooms have additional touches in the bathroom like cotton balls, qtips soaps bath salts. Great spot gran a cable right out front at corner near Starbucks and see the sights. Nostalgic feel to hotel and really cool, clean, and would highly recommend.
