I would definitely go back to stay again
Pros:

I liked the location, it was close to Union square, easy to find

Cons:

It didn’t have a parking garage. Which was fine I found parking across the street in a private garage that was safe and clean

Hotel itself is okay but the owners and staff I would not have as friends.
Pros:

Location is great. Near a lot of reputable restaurants - within walking distance.

Cons:

I didn't like the 'grab' all mentality of the hotel group. Advertising itself as a much cheaper hotel than it is in reality. They tell you what the room costs before telling you what it actuality costs. They do this by 'adding on' all the various taxes related to your stay AFTER they have given you a price for the room. I ended up paying 572.11 euros per night for a room. Then they had the check to charge me 8 dollars for a bottle of water from the room. This behaviour is what sickened me. They (attempt to) sell luxury but have no clue what luxury truly is. When I pay almost 600 euros a night to stay in a hotel room I expect to get the bottled water for free. It's their pettiness that really got to me. Vulgar not elegant that's how I'd describe this hotel.

Consistently Outstanding Service
Pros:

We’ve stayed at The Clancy Hotel in San Francisco multiple times, and the service is consistently outstanding. That’s what keeps us coming back.

I especially want to give a shout-out to Nelson, the bellman, who always takes such great care of us, and Alex at the Front Desk, who truly goes above and beyond every single time. Their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail make all the difference.

This hotel is top notch — from the service to the overall experience. Highly recommend, and we’ll absolutely be back!

Terrible service. Draconian charges.
Pros:

Terrible experience locked out of my room because they couldn't verify a $100 dollar charge after erroneously charging valet charges to my room
