The only reason this hotel is still around is because of its staff! They all need raises The single elevator is so dated... and only allow 2 people at a time and very very slow - I get that its an old building, but it makes me wonder how its still to code. The lights in the elevator are so dim you need a flashlight at all hours to see what you are pushing. The breakfast was decent - definitely can fill up on the items there and the gentleman manning the stations was very attentive - again.. the only reason this hotel is even operating... The kitchen is not stocked properly with the right utensils.. I think this is being done on purpose though. The area is pretty gross as well.. not as bad as being on Geary itself, but you just have to round the corner and it becomes hard to even walk - so much feces everywhere. The rooms definitely could use some sound proofing.. sirens and people screaming all night

Corner Suite top floor was okay. Rug needs new padding. Windows needs a good cleaning. Some screens would be nice to keep the bugs out otherwise keep it closed. Some protein like hard boiled eggs would be also be noce For breakfast. The street going towards Geary has a few homeless people and dog so watch your step! Sketchy at night!

Public spaces are plush but my room was plain with old furniture. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The amenities in room are bare bones. The continental breakfast was mostly inedible consisting of bad pastries. The yogurt was OK but full of sugar. The coffee is good. With all that, I do keep in mind I paid very little for the room compared to other hotels, and the location was convenient to many places of interest. The staff are friendly and helpful. I feel I got what I paid for, a three star hotel that lived up to its status.

Room and bath were very clean. The bed was really comfy. The hotel is charming and the staff were great. It is only a couple of blocks from Union Square and there were great breakfast places within a short walk. They do offer a nice continental breakfast in the hotel. The only thing we missed was a coffee pot in the room. They had coffee in the lobby, but we enjoy having coffee before we get dressed. Overall a great hotel with a lot of character.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The hotel lacks basic in room amenities. There is no microwave, the ice machine is located only on the first floor, and what is advertised as breakfast does not reasonably qualify as one. There is no individual climate control. The hotel relies on radiators, and staff explained while we were very cold that heat must be turned on for the entire building rather than adjusted per room. The hotel is significantly overpriced for what is offered. Street noise is constant and extremely loud throughout the night, making it difficult to sleep. Guests should also exercise caution due to the presence of homeless individuals near the front door.

The room was perfect for our family of 5. The kitchen was great, the beds super comfy and the location was super central. However the noise at night was really bad. Even with ear plugs the riff raff was a lot. We’d stay here again but would definitely insist on a higher level room away from the street.

This property borders the tenderloin neighborhood which is know for homelessness, drugs & crime. I didn't see this in any of the reviews I read. The valet service is subpar. The hotel contracts with a local garage but at busy times with traffic you may have to wait well over 30 min. We ended up finding a lot near by, negotiating a lower rate for the week & did self park.

This ended up being one of our favorite stays in SF ever. We loved the cozy historic atmosphere of the hotel. The staff customer service was truly exceptional from the front desk to the sweet house keepers. We were amazed by how kind all the staff was. Hotel is greatly located right down from Union square and surrounded by local restaurants to enjoy. Our suite was HUGE with a separate bedroom 2 Queen beds along with a Murphy bed in the living room. The full kitchen was a huge plus with bringing kids. We will definitely stay here again.
Lobby ceiling, beautiful historic detail.
