The staff was incredibly kind and attentive. They helped me navigate the city as a solo traveler. The building can only be accessed by keycard/buzzing in which made me feel extra safe. The location is great - walkable to Chinatown and North Beach. There is no AC so the room felt a little stale at times, but they provided fans and the city itself is cool, so an open window was great. The breakfast is basic but the coffee was surprisingly tasty. I definitely enjoyed my stay and would come back again. It was a little pricey, but very charming.

A cute, cozy hotel. Love the old historic feel of it. We really enjoyed the cozy dining area for breakfast and wine. The place could really use some new paint and a deep cleaning though. Our room was a deluxe queen with fireplace but not the one pictured upon reservation. Small bathroom vanity--barely room for a curling iron, no soaking tub. Pretty noisy at night. Old TV that struggled working. No blackout curtains.
