This was a pretty cool hotel, very convenient to where I had to go for my trip and was not a high traffic area so it was enjoyable very close to the scooters that I rented over the weekend. A good distance from the pier and Golden Gate Bridge, but very good place to stay if staying in the city.

The staff were all courteous and helpful. I loved hearing that until last year a single family had owned the hotel since 1929.
The 2nd floor mezzanine is a nice quiet space.

Had a great stay here. The room was clean, comfortable, and well taken care of, and the staff was friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The location was convenient and made getting around really easy. Everything felt smooth and stress-free, which is exactly what you want when staying at a hotel. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.
