Such a gem! This boutique hotel completely exceeded my expectations. The staff was friendly, the room was even cuter than I anticipated, and the location was perfect — super central and convenient to all the major tourist spots. My only minor gripe is that the room would get humid after showers since there’s no bathroom fan, so our towels never fully dried. Other than that, everything was wonderful — I’d absolutely stay here again!

The room was fine. Clean, well stocked, but no a/c and the windows only open 2" with no screens. Was very hot and stuffy. The lobby was filthy when we arrived. Coffee machine has coffee split on it, trash under coffee station, top of coffee station had dried up spills. Carpet could use a good cleaning. Front door glass covered in finger prints. Will not stay there again.

Liked coffee machine in lobby. Served its purpose with 1 night stay. Suggestion for check-in. When asking for personal info like email, pls ask guest to write down on paper & hand it to you. Also people do not need to know which floor I am staying on. Overall good stay.

I like this hotel very much. Never met an employee who wasn't on the ball and trying. It's my go to SF hotel for awhile now. Only thing I would mention is the nightstands with sloped edges! Haha. Things fall off a lot.

The issues I’m recognizing here are not the fault of individual staffers, but indications of lack of care and competency by ownership. When I checked in, the process was convoluted. I had to sign in to multiple portals to get an electronic passcode for my room door (no key cards). The first room I was given was not cleaned in time; there were still towels on the floor and unmade bed etc. The cleaning staff is clearly understaffed. I had to ask for a different room, and when I made the front desk aware, he rolled his eyes and huffed. Not at me, at the situation. Poor communication between staff. The next afternoon, I asked for a fresh towel as I returned to my room. The front desk clerk assured me he would speak with housekeeping and it would be to my room “in 3 minutes”. The towels never showed up at all. I made do, but very annoying. I tried ironing my dress in my room, but the iron had mineral or dirt build up in the water tank, and left stains on my dress. Horrifying, as I was heading to a wedding. I blotted the stains out best I could. Additionally, each time I took a shower, the tub filled with water; it was clogged due to poor maintenance. Overall, the property is poorly cared for, and you can see the thousands of tiny ways that ownership cut corners to save money. The staff are poorly trained, and young/inexperienced. This is NOT blaming any staff, because despite the poor training, they were all unfailingly polite and kind. Just terrible management practices
