Just sharing because I look at the reviews before purchasing. The location was not bad, good places to eat around that are walking distance. The room itself was really small for 2 adults and 2 kids. The restroom was really small, especially the shower amd poorly structured. Our key also was deactivated around 10, check was 11. We went down for a new key to get our stuff after breakfast, as was told, and still didnt work. They had to go up with a master key.

Awesome historical hotel centrally located just steps away from Union Square and Powell St. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. Tne rooms comfortable and spacious. The only disadvantage is that the hotel doesn’t have a restaurant or coffee shop. There is a little smell throughout the property. But in general we enjoyed our stay

One of the main reasons I booked this hotel was for the heated pool, but it was closed during my stay. When I called the front desk, they told me that Expedia was supposed to notify me about the closure. The body wash bottle in the room only had enough product for one use. The air conditioning buttons were very old, difficult to understand, and not functioning properly. The room itself was too small. There were two old phones displayed in the lobby. I briefly touched one of them, and a front desk staff member yelled at me in front of other guests, telling me not to touch it. There was no sign indicating that guests were not allowed to touch the phones. Additionally, the shower water was not hot enough. Overall, the facilities felt outdated and poorly maintained.

The room was clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful. Great location and very quiet. The only thing is that the room was quite warm and we had to leave the window open all night. The thermostat in the room was not working.
