Categories

Cleanliness
7
Many guests praised cleanliness (sheets/towels and tidy rooms) but several reports of musty/old-building smells, worn bathrooms and occasional thin-wall issues lower this score.
Service
8.8
Consistently praised staff: described as helpful, friendly and accommodating (several shout-outs to an evening manager, 'Abraham'). Some isolated check-in delays, but overall service is a strong point.
Location
8.5
Excellent central location (near Union Square, cable cars, Moscone Center, good transit and dining options). Score tempered by neighborhood safety concerns, street noise and visible homelessness in the area.
Room Quality
7.3
Mixed: some rooms described as beautiful, updated and spacious (executive/junior suites), while others are small, with dated/worn bathrooms, no bathroom fan and thin walls.
Amenities
8
Positive amenities include a restaurant/bar (BOTA), free glass of wine nightly and on-site spaces; however parking is limited, off-site or expensive which reduces the amenity value.
Value for Money
7
Some guests felt it was good value for price, but billing issues (unauthorized charges), expensive/off-site valet parking and occasional mismatches with photos reduce perceived value.
Food and Beverage
8.5
Food/beverage receives strong mentions: on-site restaurant (BOTA) praised for tapas/paella and guests appreciated complimentary evening wine.
Overall Experience
6.5
Overall stays are frequently described as good/very good with many guests wanting to return, but recurring negatives (noise, smells, safety/area concerns, parking and billing problems) bring down the overall experience.

Very nice and clean, especially the sheets and towels, and a comfortable space.

The smell, I don't know what it is, but I think it's the kind of smell an old building has.

Pros:

Not much at all.

Cons:

Their whole operation is a scam. The hotel looked nothing like the photos and the only parking you have is a shady parking garage linked to the hotel. After reading multiple reviews about this hotel and the parking garage we believed are belongings or ourselves weren’t safe and left.
