Great location and enjoyable stay. The breakfast exceeded my expectations and offered everything I needed. The room was clean, and the shared bathroom was also spotless and well-maintained. The only issue was that there was no housekeeping during my three-night stay, even after I reminded the front desk in the morning. That was a little disappointing. Overall, it was still a comfortable stay, and I would recommend this hotel for its cleanliness, breakfast, and convenient location.

Nice quiet stay, Old style hotel. The owners are at the Cornell hotel, which is 3-4 buildings away towards Powell Street on the same side - if you arrive hotel late. Breakfast was nice and overall good stay. Area is nice too.

A great pet friendly hotel right by Union Square! Great location and great prices. There is a $20 amenity fee per day that I wasn’t expecting though. Breakfast was ok (eggs, sausage, toast, yogurt, fruit, cereal, oatmeal, coffee, tea, milk). They have a cat who lives in the lobby named Skittles and she is adorable! It does NOT smell like urine (like another review said). Our room was quiet, cozy, clean, and we felt safe. We wish that there was a refrigerator in the room. We gave them an 8/10 overall. We would recommend them!

We were only there one night. Got in late. Had to go to another hotel 1/2 a block down the street to check in. Had to go back to that other hotel for breakfast. Breakfast was good though. It seems like the place is being neglected. Room was not bad, sufficient for one night. Easy parking across the street.

I know there is a cat in the hotel but the smell of cat urine is quite strong. The room was clean, although TV and some plus sockets were not working. Bed and shower were very good. I preferred staying at the Cornell Hotel 2 minutes down the road!
