The location was very good and staffs were all kind. They provide coffee, cookie and apple for free. The only negative point is that the room’s not soundproofed well.

Great stay! We found this place last year when our usual hotel was full, and it’s become a favorite. Clean, convenient, and comfortable even without AC — the ceiling fan worked great in October. Loved the free cookies, popcorn, water and coffee! There are some friendly staffs too. Just wish they’d update the elevator. Will definitely stay again next year!

Lovely, cozy room with a good soaking bathtub. Next door is Sears Restaurant, a San Francisco treasure with delicious and well-priced food. Cable car in front, BART a few blocks down and buses galore. Have Clipper Card to explore.

Staff were professional. Alicia in the bar was fun and friendly while also remaining professional. The room was a little funny in that the door to enter was directly in front of the bathroom door, but we managed just fine. The bathroom floor was a slight step up, no big deal. Our view was not great, but the room was quiet. The hotel offers some nice amenities in the lobby: a filtered water dispenser for filling your own bottles for the day, free popcorn at night, cookies in the morning, and coffee. No in-room coffee, but they make up for it with Torani syrups, including sugar-free, plus all the standard sweeteners, AND three different cream options. The pillow menu is delightful! The walk-in closet allowed us to tuck away everything, so the room wasn't cluttered with our belongings. I would definitely stay here again. Cons: The beds are very soft - not in a bad way - I found mine to be very comfortable! The problem is that there is obviously a preferred sleeping side, and they need to turn or flip the mattresses. We slept diagonally and solved the problem. A minor issue was that the blackout curtains had dropped a hook, so it was difficult to shut them. I notified staff of these issues upon our departure. All in all, a lovely stay at a historical SF hotel.
