This is a smaller boutique hotel with all the amenities you need and an outstanding location! The staff was great in the hotel and at Perry's across the hall. We had a great time walking through all the shops at the ferry terminal and strolled through the financial district and Union Square. Our view of the Bay Bridge was amazing and we'll definitely be back.

Location! Location! One block from the water, easy to walk to the ferry building and up and down the waterfront. I stay here quite a bit. The rooms are always immaculate. The beds are comfortable. The water pressure in the shower is good. But most of all the staff is always very pleasant to deal with.
