Old hotel with a lot of character in a safe neighborhood. Free breakfast is a plus. Large room, good storage space. Kitchenette is a plus but very few plug points in the room.

This is a beautiful historical hotel. The breakfast was good. The room was clean and mostly quiet. It has an elevator which is helpful. It’s important to know the hotel is a few blocks from the ‘tenderloin’ district which is not a good area but at least when I asked the front desk staff what the neighborhood was like he was honest and told me to stay away from that area. The parking is in a garage below the building. The entrance is narrow and difficult to navigate with a car. We accidentally scraped our car on the front passenger side. The next time we exited we asked for someone to direct us. We were able to get out just fine then. There was no street parking available so we had to continue to use the garage and wish someone had directed us in the garage the first time to avoid damaging our car.

The staff was courteous and the facilities and room were clean and well kept. Staff was helpful providing suggestion on local sites to see, assist with MUNI transportation, and places to eat. I love boutique hotels like the Mayflower and would stay again and have recommended it to friends for future stays.

This hotel was built in 1920s and it was lovely. The history can be felt throughout this building from beautiful ceiling and historic safe in the entrance hall to 1920s style elevators. I found the hotel quiet in general. That said, those who are light sleepers, like myself, ask for a room in the back of the building not facing the alley/street or next to elevators. My first room was 606 not facing the street but facing the alley but every morning about 5am street noise woke me up and I could occasionally hear the elevator at night. The wonderful and polite gentlemen at the front desk found a perfectly quiet room at the back of the building. Any room ending with 19 to 16 (619, 618...) is located away from street. There was no A/C in the rooms but there were fans and all my windows opened. Some rooms seemed to be more renovated than others. Liked that there was a microwave and the fridge. The rooms and bathrooms were quite clean with the exception of behind the bed that needed some dusting. Bed was comfortable. Some reviews did mention some unpleasant smell, and yes some of it was present, however, I think this is due to the old cosntruction. I smelled the same thing thoughout the city as passed old buildings etc. I didn't find this to be a problem for me. The breakfast is minimal and basic but I appreciated the hard-boiled eggs and bread. Dispite some reviews, it was well stocked and seemed enough for everyone. I would stay at this hotel again.

A rather ordinary old hotel

The hotel left the deepest impression on me was its old elevator. The rooms were small and the sound insulation was poor. Especially, there was no parking space available (the public parking lot costs $60 per night), which made me, a first-time visitor to San Francisco, completely unable to adapt.

Awesome hotel for price. Free breakfast is a plus. Location is exceptional. Walking distance to Chinatown, Union Square, the piers. They should think about cleaning the windows. Kind of gross! But we will be back.

I absolutely loved this hotel and would come back when visiting San Francisco. Only con would be the parking which is only suitable for compact cars as the garage door is only 70 inches wide. If you don’t have a small car you need to find a parking outside which needs to be moved every 2 hours or pay to park inside a garage overnight which wasn’t bad. The garage was only 1 block down. But overall, amazing experience.
