The property looks fantastic but the tiny rooms, dirty carpets, and basis food at the post in made me give it 4 stars. The rooftop bar was incredible”IF” you call days ahead to book a table. There was 20 tables available at 6 pm yet all were somehow booked. Ok I get it, People will be coming in, no one came. We left and it was still semi empty. Went down to eat and paid $50 dollars for the most basic lobster raviolis. Yes there was fresh lobster in the dish so I understand the price but this was the most mediocre looking/tasting ravioli I’ve ever had. All 3 dishes I ordered were the same, Mediocre. The drinks and the service was 5 stars. The location is great for jumping on off trolley. The bar had a great vibe, live music, great service. IMO go get a drink here, enjoy the buildings history/beauty, rooftop, live music and stay at a hotel that has bigger rooms and better food. Solid 4 stars.

Great place to stay in San Francisco! We were a 5 minute walk to lots of shopping and restaurants were everywhere. There was a stop for the cable car right outside the hotel as well. Room was clean. The rooftop bar was also fun and convenient for a cocktail at the end of the night. Would stay here again
