Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a comfortable stay at a good value close to Powell Street for easy access to affordable amenities. The rooms are small but cozy, lacking some expected facilities like a hairdryer and iron, yet with daily towel changes. The service is friendly and helpful. The location is very convenient, with easy access to Union Square and nearby attractions. The dining experience is average, with some tasty pastries but limited choices and additional charges for certain items.
The hotel rooms are spacious with a good bathroom but lacking proper noise insulation, offering only pastries and powered milk for breakfast. The staff is friendly but tends to be preoccupied with their phones. Despite this, the hotel is centrally located though amidst a grotty environment with many homeless people around.
My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable. The rooms were clean and to a high standard, equipped with a hair dryer and an ironing board + iron, but somewhat small and lacking a view. The service was very efficient and friendly, especially after a long flight from Sydney. The location was convenient, close to Union Square and with various dining options nearby. The dining experience offered a good selection of pastries and beverages. Overall, a great value for the price paid.
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms, though they could use a little update. The staff are friendly and helpful, but there was an unexpected request for a tip upon arrival. The location is perfect for exploring San Francisco, within walking distance of major attractions. The dining options are basic, featuring cakes and coffee, with minimal variety. Overall, a decent choice for a stay in the city without breaking the bank.
The hotel is conveniently located in a central area, ideal for exploring Chinatown and taking the cable cars to the Bay. While the rooms were nice and suitable for families, they lacked natural light and felt a bit damp and cold at times. The service was friendly overall, but a particular encounter over the phone left a negative impression. The location, though central, had noise issues both inside and outside the hotel, detracting from the experience. Dining options were limited, but there was easy access to cafes for additional choices.
I couldn't have asked for a better location in the heart of San Francisco, right near Chinatown and close to many attractions. The rooms, though basic, could use a better bed and mattress, but the service from the staff was top-notch. Dining was simple, but the breakfast was convenient. The price is reasonable compared to the high cost in the city, making it a great value for the prime location.

The hotel is in a convenient location, close to Union Square and Chinatown, making it ideal for a short stay in San Francisco.

Despite the surrounding hills, the hotel's location near Union Square and Powell St makes it easy to move around San Francisco either by public transportation or on foot.
The hotel had small but comfortable rooms, and despite some noise like hearing the neighbors, the overall stay was decent. The breakfast offerings were limited to croissants and pastries with powdered milk due to a heating system issue, affecting the experience. The hotel was conveniently located near the cable car and parking, close to restaurants and bars, but some areas nearby were less appealing with a presence of homelessness.
