The hotel is nice and rooms are big and clean. But the staff in reception is unhelpful and one lady thre is rude. The staff that serves breakfast in the morning is nice. The hotel is next to the ugly area of San Francisco, but i felt safe there.

Decent hotel with nice views and decor. It could use a facelift. The fixtures are tired looking and there are some cracks in the ceiling.

Very Unhappy

I have marked everything as terrible. The outside of this hotel looked nothing like the photos. The area was so dirty, people eating out of garbage cans, drinking on the sidewalk, sleeping on the slidewalk, etc.. When we drove up to the hotel, we took one look at the area, the fact that parking was 2 blocks away (yes they had valet but that would have cost me about $100 each way), and I didn't feel safe stepping out of my car. I am not unfamiliar with big cities having traveling to NYCity, Seattle, Vancouver and felt safe there. We did not stay and ended up having to pay $200 to stay at a Doubletree Inn outside this terrible area.

Not the best

This hotel is clean for its age. The staff is professional and helpful. The room was okay. The biggest issues are location and parking. The location is near the tenderloin. It’s okay within the general vicinity of the hotel but, as you go south, it gets pretty dirty and seedy. All night there are sirens and people talking loudly outside. It never really quiets down. Parking is a nightmare. You can try to get valet but there are only 2 spots to park and wait for them and they never seem to be around - we were told it would be an hour wait to get our car back at times and it is pretty pricey. You can try for street parking but it’s sketchy at best and you’re likely to have your car broken into, according to people in the area. It’s basically a hassle to stay at this place. It’s not horrible overall, but a logistical nightmare.

Good hotel, good value.

We had a nice stay. Good room, excellent and spacious bathroom with bidet, 2 sinks, full bathtub and shower, with a terrific kitchette featuring full-size refrigerator, stove with cooktop, sink, and microwave. Breakfast was a tad uninspired - bland, cold pastries were the main feature. Overall, very satisfactory stay.

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.
