Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The rooms are small and the bathroom so small it is difficult to sit comfortably on the toilet as a normal sized adult. The elevators are very slow, and in the morning there is only a single coffee machine in lobby so expect a line and wait. The cleaning staff did a great job,and the front desk staff are friendly. Good central location, but an old hotel which is dates. The tv didn’t work for half of our one week stay, and was glitchy for the remainder. Limited channels. Poor views from room.

The room was perfect, as we were out most of the day and everything we needed was within the room. The complimentary cookies, coffee, teas, and water were great to have during our stay. The staff was amazing and felt their service went beyond expectations. The location was in a central area surrounded with great food and bars, not to mention in line of cable cars making transit easy!
