The hotel offers clean and spacious rooms but lacks in privacy and needs improvement. Staff are helpful and friendly, though photos may not match reality. The location is excellent for exploring downtown San Francisco, but some noise and lack of AC can be bothersome. Dining options are limited, and a deposit policy may cause inconvenience.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were fine, but facing Post Street made it quite noisy at night. On the bright side, the room was new and comfortable, equipped with a hairdryer and toiletries. The bed was super comfy, which was a huge plus.

The location was excellent if you need to be near Union Square and major hotels for conferences. It's central, and you're practically next door to the best breakfast place in town, Honey Honey. The hotel is conveniently situated within walking distance to various attractions and public transportation options in downtown San Francisco.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The location is excellent, just 2 blocks from Union Square and the cable cars. The rooms, although without a bathroom, were a decent size and looked out onto Post Street. The cleanliness was satisfactory, but could be improved. The service, despite a friendly reception at the lobby, had moments of incompetence and uncommunicativeness from the staff. The accent of some employees made communication challenging. The dining options were limited for dietary restrictions, such as gluten and sugar-free diets. However, the convenience of nearby eateries was a plus. The facilities offered were decent but not exceptional.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, with their warm lighting and television, were nice but be cautious about the noise and size, make sure you get a room with a private bathroom if that's a priority. The service was pleasant and helpful despite some nuisance. The location was ideal for a short stay near Union Square although not without flaws. The dining experience was okay with one breakfast option nearby. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory, balancing out the stay.

The location was very convenient, near Union Square with easy access to restaurants and shops. The dining was uninspiring, and the facility ratings varied.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were tiny but surprisingly had a wooden floor, different from the usual carpet. However, the room felt a bit warm. The on-suite bathroom was large, which was nice. The service was hit or miss; some staff members were helpful and polite, especially when changing rooms, while others seemed disinterested when dealing with requests. The location was perfect, right in the heart of San Francisco, making it easy to access Union Square and transportation.
