The hotel's location is wonderful, close to many places to explore in San Francisco, but street noise can sometimes be bothersome. The rooms were small, more suitable for solo travelers than couples, just as expected. The service was mixed, with some helpful staff but also some unresponsive members. The dining experience was decent, delivering meals on time but not as engaging as before. Despite some downsides, the price for the location is reasonable.

7.6/10

The hotel had individually decorated rooms in a lovely manor-like style but lacked air conditioning. Despite being smaller than expected, the location was still charming. The staff were friendly and helpful, though their casual attire was noted. The hotel's prime location allowed easy access to many attractions, offering a relaxing stay with great dining options nearby. However, the dining experience, especially the quality of food, was not as impressive as in the past.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of North Beach with Coit Tower and Pier 39 just a short walk away. The rooms were cozy and clean, though the bathroom being across the corridor was a bit inconvenient. The service was friendly overall, but there were a few hiccups. The dining experience brought guests together and the atmosphere was warm and inviting.

Rooms

The rooms were comfortable, but it was advertised as a queen room and only had a double bed. The bathroom being opposite in the corridor was a bit of a hassle.

The hotel provides a lovely manor-like ambiance in the heart of San Francisco with easy access to major attractions. The rooms are tastefully decorated and cozy, even though they lack AC. The service is friendly and accommodating, enhancing the overall experience. On the downside, the dining experience fell short of expectations. The central location makes exploring the city convenient and enjoyable.

I loved staying at this hotel! The location is perfect for exploring different parts of the city, the service was very nice, and the rooms were cozy, even though a bit cramped with too much furniture. However, the dining was a letdown with a decrease in food quality. Overall, it's a delightful place to stay.

I found this hotel to be a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, close to Coit Tower and Pier 39, but the room was tiny and uncomfortable. The staff had that cozy 'Inn-feeling', but lacked knowledge about local attractions. Dining felt more like a bed and breakfast experience. Price was reasonable given the central location.
