Overall just fine, but probably not as modern or well-appointed as other Kimpton properties in other cities I’ve stayed at in the past. Balcony was not cleaned before we arrived, a few roaches (spent joints, not insects) and a bell (odd, like from a Christmas decoration). TV entertainment system was dated and the room didn’t make great use of space.

Staff is spectacular. I stay here every time I come to SFO because the staff is so nice, and the view of the city or courtyard are always great. I really appreciate the fact that I see familiar faces when I come year after year. This shows you treat your staff well. Thank you for that!

Great, convenient and clean- the only problem I had was the lack of availability of park parking spots on the street and the small parking slots within the garage- apart from that- excellent stay.

The hotel was very nice. Clean, quiet, near our venue. Parking was great and it was easy to get to. The restaurant/ bar was amazing. Viola was a great bartender and pointed us to new and exciting drinks. She was also very nice and provided excellent service. The only issue, and it’s an issue I have had at hotels in San Francisco, the walls are very thin. The residents in the next room morning conversation could be heard as if they were in the room. However the whole experience was wonderful and will book again.

Nice hotel. Great location. Friendly staff 1) the WiFi barely barely works (like 1% of what you'd expect 2) the room smelled (smoker before me?) 3) walls paper thin, you can hear every person walking by (nothing you can do about that)

Yes, this property is not as “luxurious” as other Kimpton properties but it is TOTALLY worth the location. Quiet neighborhood, lots of food options and you don’t have to deal with hobos, drug addicts and human feces like you would in the downtown/SOMA area. Union St and shopping is a nice walk over the hill and an easy, convenient bus stop that takes you right to the Ferry Bldg is across the street. I only wish it had a TV with streaming options. Nobody does cable anymore!

Room was clean, good location, parking easy. The walls are super thin, I didn’t get any sleep. I could hear EVERYTHING happening in the room next to us. I am not a light or sensitive sleeper. It was the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had. We live in the bay area and just wanted a cozy night in the city. I would not book this hotel again.
