The room and the bathroom were both super clean - the staff was friendly and the quirky amenities were super cool! The location was perfect, we were able to walk everywhere, which was amazing! The only thing I’d point out is the smell, which could be due to the age of the hotel - and although the shower and toilet had good water pressure, the sink did not. But overall it was a great experience and will for sure be staying here again during our next trip.

The hotel's beat literary theme is fun. It's clean, quiet, in a safe neighborhood with a good (expensive) sushi bar around the corner and a diner down the street and a good coffee shop downstairs adjacent to the lobby. Bed is comfortable, TV is fine, and the price is usually reasonable. Cable cars and North Beach and Chinatown and City Center all within an easy wallk.

Great location, the hotel has personality, the rooms are ample and clean, and Gitanjali, the manager, did some magic at the front desk to get me a quiet room. I love coming back to this hotel.

Loved our stay!

We had our first date in the lobby of this hotel 9 years ago. They made our stay comfortable and fun. Service was perfect. We loved getting a drink in the hotel bar (excellent cocktails) and hope to visit again soon.

Nice hotel, but like much of San Francisco nowadays, it’s not the safest neighbourhood, so didn’t always feel safe coming and going, especially at night
