    Very noisy outside especially at night (earplugs provided free of charge), a car alarm went on and off from 4am onward, some homeless people outside of the building. The area smells of urine which is a real shame as the location is fantastic otherwise.

    Nice clean room and bathroom, lots of perfectly white fluffy towels, lots of pillows, very pleasant staff, free luggage storage before and after our stay, we were allowed to extend our stay by 3h without extra charge, small but tasty breakfast (to compliment it, we got some bread etc from a local bakery), access to coffees and tea all day long, complimentary wine on arrival, very close proximity to fisherman's wharf and public transport including cable car. Disney channel on TV. Coded doors (no risk of losing the card/key), fast WiFi.

    Unclear when booking that it was a continental breakfast only. Unfortunate they had a beautiful kitchen but no food made.

    Gorgeous decor, comfortable bed, very convenient location to union square and public transportation. Staff was extremely helpful and informative and accommodating.

    I did not like so much the matress which was very uncomfortable and the noise coming from outside since the noise isolation is not super good

    I really appreciated the cordiality at the front desk and support in checking out us very early in the morning as well as giving us breakfast despite the very early hours

    You can definitely hear everything that is going on outside the hotel and too many homeless around the area and in front of the hotel at times.

    The hotel and the staff was amazing. Need a better breakfast for sure but the hotel is amazing.

    There are many junkies around the hotel, but the hotel is safe. Its fine during the day, but after sunset its not a good experience. Nothing happend to us, just did not feel safe outside. Rooms are smaller, but for 2 nights it was fine.

    Hotel was very nice, personal was great - we got many good advices! Restaurant was not working, but we got tips where to buy food take away and eat it in the hotel.

    Breakfast was very disappointing, only muffins, yogurt and apples every day. Coffee was good though. Also the bar and restaurant wasn't completed with renovations so looked empty and not too organised.

    The hotel stuff was super friendly and helpful..The location wasn't great as lots of homeless people around the area, but transport was nearby to get you to places easily inc the airport.

    Room overlooked a busy street with a lot of screaming from people outside, glass bottles shattering in the street, and sirens. This occurred all night long. The heater in our room did not work, nor did the outlets in the bathroom.

    Friendly staff, comfortable bed, cute Art Deco decor.

    While we were given a bigger room at check in which we appreciated a few things didn't work. The air cond only threw cold air the TV didn't work and the shower kept dripping. We were moved to another room which was better but some lighting did not work. It's often the little things....

    The location was fine. A bit noisy overnight and a bit of a rough neighbourhood these days

    Very basic hotel, but perfect for a trip where you're mainly out sightseeing anyway. Incredible location, close to Union Square for shopping and the subway station for a direct link to the airport in only 30 mins. Bonus: The beds were insanely comfortable!

    The room was very dark and smaller than what it looks on the pictures. For a four star hotel, I would have expected there would be a main light in the room. The lift was out of order for the three nights we were there, we were lucky to be put in a room that was on the second floor but the stairs up were very narrow for a suitcase.

    The hotel was nice and the location was great for nearby places to eat and getting on public transport. The staff were friendly

    The Elevator was still broke. I read that in reviews from a month ago and didn’t think they would not have fixed it yet. My daughter has a broken hip. Stairs are really steep. So it was not ideal… Be aware that the staff says, it will take another month or so to get a new elevator…

    Generally a very nice Hotel. The style and the design are modern but comfortable. Location is in the City Center

    There was no fridge or microwave anywhere which was a bit inconvenient. There was often a man playing very loud music right out front.

    The workers were super friendly willing to lend a hand. Its within walking distance of a lot of restaurants and activities.
