Old hotel, not nice but good enough I guess

This is at most a two star hotel. No amenities other than coffee in the lobby in the morning. No kitchen items in the room. Bed was comfy. The rest of the furniture ranged from shabby to disgusting. We paid $110/night, fine for last minute in SF, but I saw others paid $600 and I would have been livid.

A stay at the Mosser is always pleasant. The room is small but just what is needed for a short stay. I wish they would put a small refrigerator and a coffee machine in each room.

Not very satisfied. I guess not very bad either.

I got a deluxe room. The receptionists were not friendly. WiFi was so slow. There weather was ok, but the water radiator was so noisy at nights! The room's door is not sealed enough and light comes in from the door frame. Also, you can hear people walking in the hallway, which is annoying at nights.

Nice boutique hotel

Just an average place. It’s an old Boutique hotel. Rooms are small. The beds are comfortable and it’s in a great part of town near everything.
