Liked: Cleanliness
the room was small with the room's only window looking out to a skylight cover on floor down and brick walls. Inside the furniture looked old with varnish worn off the wood bed frame. The private bath was odd with the sink in the main room, but the toilet and shower were in another. The sink had hot water, but the shower had none. I even let it run for a few minutes, hoping it was just the old pipes taking longer. But I never got it to give even warm water. the staff was nice enough, but not really friendly or going out of their way at all. The one elevator to the ground floor can take forever. Sad thing is I used to love this hotel. It used to be quirky eclectic, now it just seemed worn.

I enjoyed my stay at The Mosser. The hotel was in the center of everything and was super close to the Powell St. BART station. Yes, the room was small, but that wasn't a problem. There was room around the bed and enough space for two people to sleep and stop off to change. It was very clean and the bathroom had lovely tiles. I liked that the sink was outside the bathroom, even! It's an old building, so some things (like the grout), might not look fresh, but it was tidy and well-appointed and charming. I'll definitely stay at The Mosser again when I visit San Francisco.
