    This is definitely an older building and although clean, there was no blow dryer in the bathroom and the windows were drafty and rattled in the wind.

    The location of the hotel was convenient, with easy access to all types of transit and even walking distance to many of San Francisco’s highlights. There were also lots of good restaurants in the area .

    I liked its old fashioned style which reminded me of a hotel in England. I was very economical for a party of 5. I wouldn’t want the prices to go up. I am sure if you added down comforters that would happen. Most of the fancy hotels and Airbnb have them. That’s all I would add if you added without hiking prices.

    The hotel furnishings and amenities are very old and out of style. The shower water takes a long time to heat up, and all the furnishings are scratched or old. The toilet didn’t work at first, and we had to manually lift the tank open and adjust the pump whenever we needed to flush the toilet. For the price, we didn’t expect luxury, so we’re okay with it, and we would still stay here again.

    The property is in an ideal location and feels very safe. The front door is locked and requires buzz-in, but the staff is very prompt about letting you in. The rooms are extremely quiet.

    The scent within the lobby is like very very old. The heater in the room is not constant, no disposable slippers. Our booked room was with bath tub but the one assigned has not any.

    The location is superb. Walking distance to almost every famous location.

    It has a peculiar smell that is sometimes uncomfortable. It must be because of the carpets. I also didn’t like that they turned off the heating at night and I didn’t have extra sheets for the cold

    The location is really good, a lot of restaurants around, near bus and metro stations.

    Toilet was running and when I lifted the lid on the tank to try to fix it, a hose came loose and sprayed all over and I couldn't get it to go back where it belonged. Told desk and assume they will fix.

    Clean, quiet, good location for my plans, you can park in the Sutter Stockton garage overnight for pretty cheap if you're out by 9:00 a.m.

    Nothing to do with the hotel but there are really loads of homeless people around at night which is actually everywhere in San Francisco but you need to keep it in mind while having a mid-night stroll.

    Its very well located in San Francisco. You can hop on the cable car a block away, there are a few breakfast places around the corner.

    The hotel was more concerned with giving their customer only one coffee serving than making the customer happy by giving him 2 or 3 servings for the morning. The shower towels were small and cheap. The TV lacked the ability to access Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, Max like the hotel's competition do.

    Cleanliness, bed was comfortable, location is perfect, one has a sense of security. Decor was warm and inviting, like a pleasant vintage feeling. Hotel was quiet and calm.

    Comfortable and clean but expensive for what it was but in line with other properties at the so called cheaper end of the central SanFrancisco market.

    Location was perfect for exploring but overpriced for what it was though it was in line with similar hotels at the cheaper end of the scale for San Francisco. No breakfast but Honey Honey diner onbthe next corner was great. Plenty of other affordable dining options in the area.
