The bathroom door wouldn’t close all the way we had to slam it shut or it would pop open after being shut. Also the lobby was so hot, my party was trying to hang out down there one night since the rooms are so small and we all had sweat dripping down our faces. It was too uncomfortable and our night ended early because it was miserable to try to hang out down there.

The Pickwick Hotel was a great stay in SF! Close to Union Square, transportation for Cable Cars, BART or the MUNI were only a block away. We visited the wharf and went to a baseball game with ease. The staff was VERY friendly and helped us to find the right transportation. The rooms were very clean and great. The SOMA Restaurant next door was also great. We will stay here again!!

After reading the prior guest reviews I expected the hotel to be old, but in good condition and clean. I was not prepared for this hotel and WILL NEVER stay here again. The AC "worked" but did not cool the room at all on an especially hot San Francisco weekend. We requested maintenance the morning after we checked in but it never got any better. The carpets were beyond filthy. I did not want to walk barefoot in our room. The paint in the hallways and our room looks like it was completed 30+ years ago. There were huge scuff marks all over the walls like no one cared and the paint was peeling all over. The toilet looked like a toilet you would see in a gas station not a "nice hotel". The hotel could be nice but needs a major overhaul. On a positive note, it was nice to be able to park in the basement under the hotel and the front desk and cleaning staff were very nice and helpful. Please also be advised that the hotel is near "The Tenderloin" and some routes take you thru less than desirable areas.

The on site restaurant and bar had great food and friendly staff. We had two appetizers, burrata and bruschetta and shared spinach ravioli. It was all excellent and the price way reasonable. The room was small but it was nice and the bed and pillows were comfortable.
