Kind & convenient

Amazing stay! This is the exact kind of place you want for a weekend getaway. Walkable neighborhood, on the bus line, comfortable bed, nice bathroom. Corner stores for snacks & beverages. And the HELD our bags, even after check out on a rainy day- so we could run across town and get to an event. Very kind & convenient.

Great location and Cozy

Comfortable room and bed in a great location. The parking garage is a reasonable 10 minute walk away, about a half mile. Eddy's Cafe is a great restaurant nearby, and there's a lovely park at the end of Grove St with the famous Painted Ladies. The area was quiet and felt very safe.

This is a reasonably priced hotel that's in a prime location for those interested in checking out the Painted Lines or looking for a place to stay after checking out a concert at the nearby Independent, as I was when I stayed there

This hotel is a heritage property which makes it an interesting place to stay, and it's in a really nice area (very close to painted ladies!). It nice becuase the suburb does not feel touristy. The room was nice and comfy. There's no elevator and the luggage needs go up a separate machine, which needs to be done by the hotel receptionist. In terms of extra amenities, the hotel does not really have any (except some free tea in the tiny front foyer). The front receptionist seemed angry and was rude because we checked out 20 minutes late.
