Great hotel. Unique. Each floor had its own theme decorations. Elevator was ‘old style’ with a cage - fun to ride. Hot breakfasts from 7:30-10:30 am. Comfortable bed. Will stay here again.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. Just take note it's an older hotel so a mini fridge or microwave is not in your own room but shared in their cafe. It has an old time charm, but there were a couple of times the elevator kind of broke, so just watch out for that. Breakfast selection is okay, just the usual basics. The location is very convenient tho. Minutes from union square and a lot of food places nearby.

I have stayed in many San Francisco hotels because I work remotely and travel to the City for work. This is the first place that has felt like home. It has quirky charm. My 6th floor room was small but comfortable. The property and the neighborhood were very quiet at night and I slept with the window open, awakening to birds chirping. The breakfast buffet was an added plus.
