Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property only offered housekeeping on demand but failed to inform us of that upon check in. They also failed to explain that the elevator required the room key to be scanned to use it as well as to enter the hotel from the street. We Had to figure that out on our own There was no ice machine no room service or restaurant and the room was the size of a closet which was not explained in the description when booking the room. Overall a bit disappointing for the price.

Nice location, close to lots of nice shops and the cable car station. Buses and underground trains around you. Hotel itself is pretty basic though. Overall it’s a good stay for young travelers in particular.

We love staying at this hotel. It’s small but very clean and has a lot of high-tech amenities. The staff is super helpful and helps us research where we want to go if they don’t know off hand.

The city is the city so that's not the hotels fault or staff it's inna really good spot for shopping union square is a good hub of downtown but you will get the usual noise and craziness.

What I liked about the property was the location, price, and access to public transportation. The bed linens, the towels, and the wash cloths all seem to be either newer or made of higher quality materials.
