It’s a busy hotel that is comfortable but I would choose a more stylish, modern hotel next time
Pros:

Good and safe location. I’ve been to SF many times and Fisherman’s Wharf is a good choice considering Union Square is not what it used to be.

Cons:

If you like a nautical themed historical hotel this is the place for you. If you want clean, modern and stylish, this hotel is not it. I felt the rooms were outdated with a vintage bath/shower that had average water pressure. Rooms were a good size. The hotel only has 4 floors but lots of rooms on each floor. We had to walk quite a distance to the elevator. It’s was over US$400 a night which is pricey.
