Overall we had a great experience. Lots of homeless and drug use around the area but overall the hotel felt safe, clean and very unique with its history. Though it is an older hotel the suite was large and spacious for our family of five. Nice kitchenette to heat up food and enjoy meal without getting in the sleeping areas. We would stay again as this location was very close to union square and other attractions.

Clean roomy rooms. I had no issues with the room, they were clean, and plenty roomy for us for our luggage, our vacation whine down. We could easily walk about the room without being on top of each other as some older hotel rooms can be a bit cramped. we had 2 queen beds and we still had space for our stuff without any issues, nice drawers, closet and plenty of space for backpacks and laptops. Yes the wifi worked fine, and it was a bit slow but usable, we did not have any issues watching the programming we loved via the wifi. Our stay was part of a vacation trip. The location of this hotel is within a short walk to Union Square, which made shopping, and transportation very accessible. It was also super easy to grab an uber here so I did not feel that was an issue. Continental breakfast is minimal but ok, they did have fruit and oatmeal available as vegan options which was more than enough for me on those days i decided to grab a small bite in the morning. I did not have a chance to participate in the afternoon wine and tea time from 4-6pm but that was because we were out sight seeing Vallet parking simplified the parking, however there is not enough space in front of the building and many guests, us included, had to double park which caused me some anxiety, but luckily I did not get a ticket. It's an older building, so YES there is noise from street, consider earplugs if you need quiet. Noise depends on what is happening in the city, we had 1 noisy night and quiet after.

The hotel is clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with friendly and professional staff. It also offers excellent value for the price. As it’s located in the heart of San Francisco, the surroundings can be a bit noisy and busy, which is part of the city’s vibrant atmosphere. That said, upgraded windows could make the rooms even more comfortable by reducing outside noise. Overall, a great stay for those who want good service and value in a central location.

A good stay. Would come again!

The room was clean and spacious for my family (2 adults and 2 kids). There was also an equipped kitchen. The front desk staffs were polite and helpful. A big thanks to Sophia who found my lost camera and contacted her manager to return it to me.

I stayed in a single room and a double room. They were completely different! The single room was in much worse condition (peeling paint, old carpet, musty smell, and window on construction site), but the double room was lovely (spacious, a big bay window, updated washroom). Breakfast was underwhelming, location was good/central, but on the edge of a less-desirable area.

Good hotel bad parking

It is obvious that the hotel location is not great but the hotel room was spacious, it has great shower and other amenities. Staff are friendly and efficient. My only complaint is the parking situation: the hotel warned us that it takes 45 to receive our car. It took an hour and 20 minutes! The hotel receptionist called the company 3 times to bring it but it took too long.

We had a wonderful stay as a family of 4 at the hotel. The room was very generously-sized and the historic building quite lovely. We could have used another mug in the kitchen but other than that we had what we needed. There was street noise and it was a bit stuffy because there is no AC but those were small issues that didn’t disrupt our good time. The continental breakfast was useful to have food at hand and reduce costs. Very centrally located and we never felt unsafe. Similar to Seattle in that regard. All in all, a very affordable hotel that more than delivers on its promises.
