The quirky charm of a boutique hotel, but all the comfort and features of a big chain! The Argonaut is a true delight, and will be my go-to for all future SF trips. I had never stayed at a Noble House property before, but if this is their standard, I will seek them out whenever I travel. Highly recommended!
