A great location that is safe and central to many areas of SF. Loved being in the heart of Japantown. Rooms were a good size and amenities were great, however the pillows were not very comfortable. One of the hotels with more affordable parking. The garage is small but we had no issues getting a spot each night. Really enjoyed the complimentary coffee & tea in the morning and wine in the afternoon. Would definitely stay at this hotel again the next time I am in SF.

The hotel was in a very convenient area of being able to walk to all the wonderful Japanese restaurants and stores nearby. However the room was very disappointing in terms of the size and layout. Another note to consider is their parking spots are very limited.
