Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated in a bustling area of San Francisco with a convenient location for exploring the city. While the rooms faced a noisy street without adequate ventilation, the lack of an elevator made it challenging to reach the lobby. The service was friendly and helpful, and the dining options were limited and overpriced. However, the hotel's proximity to interesting neighborhoods and attractions is a major plus.
The hotel had clean and well-taken-care-of rooms but felt somewhat airless. The service was top-notch with kind and accommodating staff. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of vibrant North Beach and close to many attractions. The dining options were limited in terms of breakfast, but there were choices available nearby. Overall, a great stay with minor room discomfort.
The hotel has a great European feel in the vibrant North Beach area, perfect for exploring on foot. The service is incredible with helpful staff pointing out local eateries. The rooms initially had a musty smell due to the air conditioning units outside, but overall cozy. Dining options around the corner were overpriced for the size and lacked breakfast offerings.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. On one hand, the location was exceptional, right in the heart of North Beach within easy reach of major attractions like the wharf, Coit Tower, and Chinatown. The staff were extremely friendly and warm, providing excellent service. However, the rooms were disappointing, as they were noisy, dark, and had constant kitchen fan noise. The dining options nearby were convenient, but the noise levels and lack of natural light in the room were definite downsides.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms, although not very big, were nicely decorated and clean, capturing the artistic essence of the era. The service was professional and friendly, although I had to carry my bag up narrow stairs. The location was perfect, surrounded by cafes, bars, and restaurants, with easy access to major attractions. The dining options were convenient but overpriced for the size and lacked breakfast offerings.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room had a slightly strange smell when the window was open due to a nearby restaurant vent, but it was quickly fixed by closing the window. On the plus side, the room and bathroom were spacious and situated on the quieter side of the building, perfect for recovering after a night out. The warm weather and lack of air conditioning were minor inconveniences, though.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, although my view was a wall, so street views are recommended if possible. The service was excellent, with helpful staff making check-in and check-out a breeze. The location was perfect, right on the border of Little Italy and Chinatown, surrounded by great restaurants and cafes. Dining options were convenient, just across the street. However, the traditional decor may not be for everyone, and the facilities were good but could use a modern touch.
