Good, boutique club with rooming facilities. Old world vibe. Could to better with some refurb.
Pros:

It has a very vintage, boutique feel to it. The staff is very friendly.

Cons:

Parking is an issue. Also bedrooms don’t have air conditioning or fans. You have to crack the window open and that means the road noise (especially the tram noise) comes into the bedroom directly.

Pros:

Great location and old world charm.

Cons:

Pretty noisy room on Powell street side, and also could hear a lot of creaking on floor above. It’s an old and somewhat tired hotel.

I needed to be in SF for a short meeting, so this was convenient for short term and the price was right.
Pros:

My room was noisy but on a corner so I overlooked the cable cars from two directions.
It was quiet in the hallways.

Cons:

The bathroom door smacked into the toilet seat.

Overall, my experience was extremely disappointing, and I would not recommend this hotel.
Pros:

Location and still

Cons:

The most important thing in a hotel is a good night’s sleep. Unfortunately, the bed and pillows were in very poor condition. The pillows were old, lumpy, and extremely uncomfortable, making it almost impossible to sleep.
In addition, all of the doors appear to be old and make a very loud noise when closing, which creates constant disturbance.
What was even more unacceptable was that at 11:40 PM I was awakened by a loud conversation between the front desk employee and a guest right outside my room. Guests stay at a hotel expecting peace and quiet, and this level of noise late at night is completely inappropriate.

I am glad it was only for one day. The front desk receptionist was very cold and unwelcoming.
Pros:

The location was ideal for the day. That’s about it.

Cons:

The hotel and our rooms did not have any air conditioning. The temperature at the hotel and in our rooms was very high. The two windows in my room were jammed shot, I could not open them. It was late at night and I was exhausted from a 7 hours drive to the hotel. The next morning, I couldn’t relax in my room because of the heat of the sun, I had to go outside, on the street, to get some fresh air. Further more, the woman on the front desk was very rude, unhelpful, and unwelcoming, as if she was doing us a favor by checking us in.
