Stay at Hotel Julian in SF
The location was downtown San Francisco, walking distance from restaurants, and public transportation. We had breakfast at the pub on the corner from the hotel, and dinner at the Korean restaurant another block away. The coolest thing about the hotel is Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window was filmed there, and looking up or down the iconic staircase. Oh let's not forget the price was great!

We loved it! It was in a good spot in San Francisco. They recommended a parking garage if we couldn’t find street parking. The gal at the front desk was awesome.

Bad Stay for the Kind and Understanding Customer
Executive Suite- I usually don’t leave reviews, let alone bad ones, but the experience I had at Hotel Julian wasn’t as good as the reviews cracked up to be. I booked myself a room for 2 nights through Hotels.com at Hotel Julian. Things went smoothly checking in, and I was looking forward to a positive experience because all first impressions were good! The building is a bit rickety, but it didn’t bother me, as I knew the rooms would be better! Upon entering my checked-in room, I was hit with the stench of bleach. Being an optimist, I decided that I would air out the room by opening the windows, putting on the fan, etc.- no luck. Only until did my throat and nose started burning that I decided to call the front desk and ask to change the room. They were very accommodating and assigned me to a separate room. Unfortunately, I had a similar experience in the new room I was in. The chemical smell had improved, but if I breathed in deep, I could feel it burn my throat. I went back and forth with myself to decide whether it was worth calling, until I realized there was no other choice (for my health, safety, and comfort) to change rooms. I decided to call the front-desk and ask for a possible refund or if there was a way we can find a solution to being placed in rooms that might have a similar smell. I addressed that my concern was that my throat was hurting from the strong smell. [Part 1] [Rest of STRONG Review in PHOTOS attached]

I Was Wow'd
The new remodel is excellent. What a little hidden gem. I was surprised to find this hotel and for such a great price! My room was big and the king size bed was so so comfy. The bathroom remodel was top notch. And everyone at the hotel was gracious and attentive. There's even a cool bar off the lobby where I asked the bartender if he could make me a Manhattan. Not only was he friendly and helpful, he served up one of the best rye Manhattans I've had in a while.

Definitely A Gem!
The front desk staff was definitely amazing! He gave me an upgrade for the room I'm not even sure why lol. The lobby decor was amazing. Room was clean and cozy. And I absolutely loved the bathroom, especially it came with a built-in Bluetooth in the mirror! I'll definitely come back to stay here again if I ever am back in town 🙌!

Hotel stay from hell
Extreme rude guest yelling in the hallway and his room all night through the midnight hours. Additionally, this was followed up by major hotel construction that awoke us at 7am without warning. Nice, cozy rooms were overshadowed by this madness.
