It’s a 100 year old hotel with great character. Room was very roomy for a downtown location and would highly recommend it. Staff were super friendly as well.
It is a lovely old hotel, very well maintained, just the rooms are small but very clean. The area around the hotel is great, shops, coffee shops, china town is near. We enjoy very much our stay there
The room was a little small as it is an antique hotel. Great location and great service. The heater in my room didn't work & maintenance engineer was gone for the day, so they brought me a space heater that worked fine.
Really nice spot right in the heart of Union Square. Super comfortable king size bed, hotel was quiet. Free coffee in the morning and water throughout the day. Very nice gentlemen at the front desk, including Manfred, who is a gem of a man!
Very nice stay in heart of SF... we attended a show at the SF Playhouse, which is in the same building as the hotel. Could not have been more convenient! Also had a great dinner at Fino Italian Restaurant just down the street.
