Great stay!
The place is old but elegant and comfortable. The staff is very friendly and kind. They serve complimentary wine with cheese and crackers and the breakfast is simple but good. The common areas are always welcoming and nice to sit and enjoy. It is very well located, close the union square and china town. We loved it!

Nice hotel if you have to be in SF.
Very comfortable, pleasant hotel. Unfortunately I did not like San Francisco at all but that's not the hotel's fault. SF has a very serious problem with homeless people which is much worse than the last time i visited.
