Overall it was good. It had a vintage feel and was clean. The bed was comfortable. Parking was inconvenient and we couldn't even figure out how to get in the first night. However, we called the hotel and they were really helpful. There was no shampoo or conditioner and the vending machines were broken. The area the hotel is in is not the best. There was graffiti and homeless camps a street over. However, the property is under 24 hour surveillance and I felt safe when we were on the hotel.

I love the old Art Deco building and the interesting room from 1930s, however, the place is shabby--not a 3-star hotel. Although this is the border of the Tenderloin, good location with dining locally. The room was cold (old fashioned radiator only on infrequently), the carpet dirty, the furniture antique. Three miniscule pillows on a king-sized bed and took 48 hours to get two extras. The shower luke-warm at best. Wanted to like this old place, but won't return.

Horrible experience, when we arrived there were no clean towels in our room, no hot water. We left early. Morning to go see the city and when we arrived back to our room in the evening the front desk clerk had allowed a complete stranger into our room. The stranger had been drinking and gone through our stuff. The clerk didn't kick the stranger out, just gave us another room. Parking was a additional $60 was a very scary experience. I would like to request a refund cause we felt very unsafe

Neighbourhood is quite rough, especially in two directions from the hotel. Room had no A/C and having the window open didn’t do much but allow the noise in. Even though it wasn’t hot outside, the room was too warm. If you have a car, parking is limited and expensive. Room had minimal power points. It did have plenty of drawers for clothes and a walk in wardrobe.
