The bathroom smelled bad, old damp kind of smell. We had to keep its door closed. The air vent cover in the bedroom above the bed was full of dust and lint. It needed cleaning. There was debris on the carpet, left by mal-functioning vacuum cleaner we were told.

Checking in and out was easy. Staff friendly and helpful. Handlery is in the heart of Union Square and within walking distance to restaurants, stores, the theater and Chinatown. When I’m in the city I always choose the Handlery. My only complaint would be having a discounted rate for parking if you are guests at the hotel. We parked in another garage that was considerably cheaper.

The location of this hotel is fantastic. Situated right in Union Square, it’s an easy walk from the BART station and perfectly positioned for the New Year’s Eve fireworks at the Ferry Building. While it’s a bit of a trek to the water, the walk saved us from paying the $900-a-night premiums charged by hotels closer to the pier. However, the room itself was disappointing. We were placed right next to the pool with a sliding door entrance, which meant constant foot traffic and noise outside our door day and night. The walls are incredibly thin, and the room showed significant wear and tear that didn't align with the $250+ nightly rate. On a positive note, the staff was very friendly and welcoming throughout our stay.
