Eh.
Pros:

The first room I was given was colder than a morgue locker. It was deeply uncomfortable. The second room, better - but hard to get the AC or heater to work well. I also found some false eyelashes on the floor in the bathroom (not mine).

Cons:

See above..... The location also is weird. It's right by the Stockton tunnel. You get a parking lot view, or an alley view. The trash picks up at 0600 sharp - so don't try to sleep in.

Pros:

Beautiful hotel, very good location, friendly staff

Cons:

It would be even better if there is a breakfast opportunity in the hotel. Housekeeping could be improved.

Pros:

The aesthetic of the hotel was nice and it had a vintage feel to it. It's in a good location and has a lot of food options and tourist type activities nearby. Parking was also nearby which was also nice.

Cons:

The room was extremely small. We got a queen room but it didn't look anything like the pictures on their website. The room was basically the size of the bed, with very little room to maneuver or store luggage.

They also didn't mention anything about a "destination fee" of $25 per night, and didn't say anything about this at the front desk. They just charge your incidentals CC after you leave with this fee + any parking charges. It felt very dishonest and shady.

Beautiful hotel in the heart of Union Square! Will be back!
Pros:

They vibe of the hotel is awesome, very mid-century modern. I actually made a video of it because it is so beautiful!
The staff were friendly and very easy to talk to.
The bar upstairs was quirky and I loved the live music.

Cons:

The Wi-Fi was patchy at best which wasn't ideal since I was there for work.
It is a shame that you don't have any options for breakfast.

Cons:

I didn’t like how close the bathroom was to the bed. It was hard to walk by and also the sink and toilet were too low. The shower didn’t have a curtain so the water kept spilling out. There were lots of noises from upstairs but I assume thats from other guests.
