Overall the resort and spa amenities were great. What took our experience to the next level were all the staff we encountered during our stay. From check in, restaurant service, valet, housekeeping and check out, all the staff were friendly and welcoming. One negative aspect of this resort is if you have allergies or scent sensitivity to jasmine, oleander and wax privet (ligustrum), these plants are used throughout the resort which triggered an allergy attack. Luckily, the keep allergy medication on hand at the front desk. Allergy season might make me think twice about my next visit, but other than that I’d definitely stay again.

Extremely well priced in a great area right in the heart of Union Sq/San Francisco and the room was very clean with the bedding & towels having that laundry fresh room smell. Yes, the room was quite small but perfectly manageable. If you want a bigger room in SF, be prepared to pay five times more. Staff all super friendly. And all the complaints about a free - yes FREE!! - breakfast in a 2 * hotel are baffling. What do you expect - vintage champagne, lobster and caviar? Besides, you really should be eating at one on San Francisco's countless superb eateries instead of filling up on dry muffins and cornflakes. Great hotel, 5 * all the way.
