Spent 4 nights here over the summer with my son. Loved the hotel (quaint and quirky). Good location, where we could walk to a lot of things within 20 min or so, and various forms of transportation were nearby too. Nice little lobby/bar area to hang out in at night, clean rooms... and it really wasn't that expensive. If I come back to SF, would definitely stay here again.

Staff was polite and courteous. Complimentary sangria upon checking in was nice. Hotel itself was in good condition. Important parts of the room were clean: the sheets/bedding and the bath towels. The floor could have used a better vacuuming as there were visible crumbs or something at the foot of the bed, and there were greasy handprints on the exterior of the wardrobe and the inside of the bathroom door. It wasn't a deal-breaker so we didn't mention it (we were only there for a day and a half/two nights). It was within walking distance of The Dragon Gate and Union Square. I can't speak to public transit as we took Waymo or walked everywhere (walked to the SF Ferry Terminal and it took about 20 minutes). Overall a good deal and good location, room could have just had a better cleaning.

The hotel was stylish and in a fantastic location. The staff were welcoming and our room was lovely. Unfortunately, the shower was disappointing; the water pressure was weak and it didn't function properly.

When we arrive I was lost as to where to park and check in person came out to tell us how valet work or where we could self park. They honor our Expedia Gold with a complimentary room upgrade and waived or resort fee. The room was big and clean. The area is nice and walkable. We ate at Cesarios and Honey Honey Creperie and both were amazing, I would go back and stay here. Beautiful place.

Staff are friendly and welcoming but the area is quite unsafe and the staff aren’t very vigilant about who is coming in and out of the hotel and heading directly to the lifts. Hotel in itself is nice and how it appears on the website. Bar area is nice to sit in also. Overall we had a nice stay, just felt a little unsafe when stepping outside, this is no fault of the hotel.
