Clean room, bed comfortable, staff super friendly and helpful. Room is a bit warm but they have an electric fan. So when I cracked the window open and turned on the fan, the room cooled and was comfortable. Overall I had a good stay. Slept like a rock.

Historic hotel in a historic building. No breakfast, pool, gym, or in-room climate control. There is a ceiling fan and a desktop fan in the room though. Thin walls will have you thinking someone is in your room - can hear entire conversations and probably hear a pin drop from the other room. Good for quick trips if you plan on exploring the city but if you’re not an explorer and want to lounge around the hotel, go elsewhere.

Lovely hotel with lots of its original character, plus modern amenities. I love the extra touches like the nice espresso machine always available, the fancy water bottle filling machine. Plus flavored water, cookies, popcorn, and fruit in the lobby all the time! Room felt clean and safe, though as a woman traveling alone, I wish there were a chain on the door alongside the deadbolt. The mini fridge was bigger and colder than ones I’ve had in similarly priced hotels. My room had a huge walk-in closet! Walgreens down the block, fun shopping around the corner, great food at a classic restaurant next door, nice staff—next time I’m in San Francisco I’ll definitely be back!
