Wow, exceeded our expectations. The restaurant and bar and patio on the fourth floor was absolutely amazing. Wonderful drinks great service. Then to find out that we were not in the middle of the drugs and craziness but right next-door to Trader Joe’s . Steps away from Pete a block to the cable car and we could walk to the movies. What is not to love place was spotless… we would totally stay here again. The restaurant and bar was so unexpected and cozy with an outdoor fireplace… oh did I mention the parking underground parking that was spotless? Best I’ve ever had in the city. And I went to school there in the 80s this place was great.

Really convenient location and walkable to many nice sights in San Francisco. BART station right there. Trader Joe’s right there. Both were super convenient. The area right around hotel seemed a wee bit sketchy but I had no problems. Room was great. Common areas well maintained. Will definitely go back when in San Francisco.

The staff was very friendly and professional. This hotel is pretty big - so big that we got lost trying to find our room once we got off of the elevator. I think they could really do with some better and conspicuous wayfinding signage. The room was clean and spacious. The bathroom wallpaper was separating at the seam a bit, and I felt that they could have benefitted from a little more bleach in there. It seemed like there was no ventilation on the bathroom, which made for a lot of moisture in there. It was clean, but looked like it could use some maintenance. The area around the hotel was very busy and a little sketchy. If you walk a block or so in the wrong direction, you'll find a sketchy street scene that takes the award for the worst street I've ever seen. I don't think there was any time that I was outside of the hotel and felt calm or safe. Not the hotel's fault, but something to be aware of.

Moldy Upgrade

When I checked in, I was notified that I had been given a room upgrade to one with a jacuzzi tub. Sounds amazing, right? Well, that night, when I went to enjoy the upgrade, I filled the tub up, turned on the jets and a bunch of black stuff shot out and floated on the water's surface. There was no way I would stick my arm in there to pull the drain, so I tried calling guest services. The number rang for 5 minutes straight, so I tried calling housekeeping, where I could only leave a voicemail. I called Guest Services again, and this time, after about 2 minutes of the phone ringing, someone answered, sounding annoyed that I had just made him answer the phone. It was a disgusting experience that ended with insulting staff. Not what I was expecting at all for the price of that room per night.
