The room was lovely and a bit quirky with the pineapple theme. Had a really good shower .It was small though that's typical for a city centre room. We had some issues with the WiFi (worked fine on an iPhone but was really poor connecting to an Android phone) and with the TV which weren't resolved during our 3 night stay. The lobby area is really nice. I've rated this based on the hotel itself, but just a warning that there are a lot of homeless people in this area and that the Fisherman's wharf area feels safer.

Noisy but Charming

On its face, we really liked this hotel. However, we had to switch rooms due to excessive noise off of Geary Street and air conditioning that did not work. We were quite satisfied with the room they moved us to. The most annoying part of the bedding were the clunky European duvets – not one, but two, one for each occupant of the bed. I understand the green measures taken by the hotel and appreciate the effort, but one duvet would've been better.

The staff was delightful. Everyone was helpful and cheerful. The property was comfortable and clean. The rooms were small but elegant. The internet was a problem. I could not get online in my room; I had to use the lobby. They were having issues with parts of the hotel system. I changed rooms, but I still could not connect. They were very apologetic but could not fix it. Perhaps that was a temporary problem.

Avoid this property - here’s our experience

I had a business party with 7 rooms. On check-in, 3 of the party were told their rooms had been downgraded by Hotels.com, but the room charges would remain the same as the more expensive room. Additionally they were told that to get to rooms that were reserved, there would have to pay an additional $10 per night. The members of my party had to push hard to get the hotel staff to do the right thing, but let's call this what it was, an illegal bait and switch! Upon my check-in after 20:00 on a Friday, I was forced to wait for housekeeping to perform a quality check before I was issued a room key, begging the question why a QA check is being performed after 20:00 in the evening! All the rooms had winter bedding, leading my entire team to wake up nightly in a pool of sweat. One of my team had a nonfunctional safe in the room, reported it, and 3 days later nobody had been sent to fix it. The cafe downstairs was perpetually closed, so you could never get a decent coffee (the coffee in the rooms is unacceptable unless you are used to drinking nearly flavour less brown water. Directly next door is a restaurant bar that plays music so loud that the walls and windows of the hotel vibrate, making it impossible for some team members with jet lag to rest prior to the RSAC at Moscone Center. My advice is to look elsewhere. This was the 2nd year I booked rooms at this hotel for my group business travel and I cannot in good conscience subject my team to this property again.

overall a very good stay

Overall nice hotel, great location, would likely stay there again. Minor negative, no on site restaurant or bar, they did offer a complimentary glass of wine to be fair, but no where to hang out after dinner for a night cap. again, not a big deal, plenty of spots near by, more of an FYI rooms were typically small but clean and comfy staff was friendly

Super service. Comfortable bed!

Front desk staff was very helpful. Very helpful. Nice lobby area where people sat to drink the complimentary drinks. Room was excellent. I’m researching where they source their bedclothes. Loved ‘em. Only down side was loud music next door but that quieted down after 9pm. Definitely recommend.
