First, the good: This boutique hotel is so cute. The staff are wonderful, and the hotel car was convenient for a few trips out to different locations in San Fran. The gym is perfect and has all the equipment you could need in a cool setting. We ate breakfast at the hotel restaurant and were very impressed with the food—wonderful flavor combinations. The Aesop bath amenities also brought a nice spa-like vibe to our room/stay, making it feel luxurious.
The not so good: We had one really horrible night because of loud post-concert patrons in the hallways from midnight to 3:00 am. The second night was much better. The worst part of this hotel is the location, which is something we probably should have investigated before booking. The streets are empty of pedestrians but full of unhoused persons (some of which were exhibiting aggressive behaviors like throwing rocks or fighting), so it was not a location where you felt comfortable walking.
In sum, the hotel and its amenities are wonderful but the location is shady, not allowing for direct walking exploration/enjoyment of the immediate neighborhood (which for us is part of the fun of visiting new places).
