Quaint hotel, great location, very friendly staff
This is a quaint hotel just a few walking minutes from Union Square. Great location!
The rooms aren't the newest, but that's ok for the price. It's San Francisco after all.
The staff is very friendly and there is a quaint lobby with a fireplace on the second floor. We would definitely come again.

Extremely pleased overall
Clean rooms. Initially had a room on the second floor at the front of the hotel - I go to sleep early, there was a lot of noise from the street and from the room next door (the walls seem thin), and I asked to move and they immediately accommodated me without question. The showers had good pressure and the beds are comfortable (though the mattresses vary from room to room). This is a quality place to stay for the price.

It was good that we stayed an additional night.
We originally planned a one-day trip but enjoyed San Francisco and the hotel so much that we decided to book another day. It's in a great location, close to shopping, museums, and the pier. The only negative aspect I would mention is that the bathroom is a bit small, but it's not a deal breaker.

It's convenient because it is very close to the area I was going. Walkable in the downtown area, so it's a kind of fun.
