How does a hotel of this size not offer coffee to its guests. I’m not asking for free coffee, i’ll pay for it. Thankfully across the street at the westin st francis hotel they have a great cafe. We actually spent more time in their lobby than ours. Great location but it’s a 3 star hotel and they are ok with that. No extra effort made to impress you here. I will say the room was very quiet at night.

I called ahead to ensure that they had parking for our van. I requested at least 9 feet of clearance although or van only needs 7 and was assured that they had it. Their garage which is around the block could only clear 6'8". After waiting again for help and being largely ignored we were directed to a garage 1/2 mile away. This garage had even less clearance. We ended up leaving since we couldn't park. What i saw of the room was small and smelled moldy.

It was a nice room and area. We could walk to lots of restaurants. There is a decent amount of homeless population around there but we never felt unsafe. We just made sure to be in before dusk.

Really nice little hotel. Only complaint is I feel they they were gouging on parking. Otherwise the staff was extremely helpful and for an old building the place was nice and clean and very well kept up. Right at Union Square. Would definitely start there again!

The staff was friendly, and the room was clean and comfortable. However, the refrigerator was not very cold, and the shower water pressure was low. Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay.
