This was an absolute throwback to yesteryear of San Francisco. The hospitality and decor was so nice. The complementary cookies and filtered water, as well as candy and such in the rooms, were all really nice touches to what was an over-the-top experience.

Close to EVERYTHING!
Staff was super helpful and friendly. Big space (suite), nice hot shower, comfy bed. Only improvement would be to replace the carpeting (carpeting is gross in general). Loved the cookies and the popcorn. Took Waymo - super fun.

Great stay for a great price
I come here annually with my sisters on Black Friday and have found their service to be warm and kind. Beds are comfy. Rooms are small, but all that we need. Can’t beat the location for the price.

Highly Recommend this Historic Hotel
This hotel is wonderful; great location, clean, friendly staff. The only downside was the elevators are a bit slow and small, but considering this is a historic hotel expanding the elevators would be difficult. I’m glad the hotel owners has kept its original ambiance.

Great boutique hotel in a perfect location!
Great location, very friendly staff, free coffee and cookies and apples. Hotel is old but well maintained. Beds are only doubles and very soft so you tend to roll into the middle which makes it a bit squishy! But everything else is fantastic!

Fantastic location
Friendly, clean and well located hotel. We were greeted personally by the staff and really felt welcomed. Coffee, water and cookies in the lobby were appreciated. The hotel had an agreement with the parking garage across the street and the price was better than any other downtown hotel.
