My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was interesting, close to various attractions, but there were some disturbances like noise. The service was exceptional, with staff being friendly and accommodating. The rooms were well-equipped but faced inconveniences at times. Dining options were minimal, and the facilities were decent.

The hotel felt more like a studio apartment than a traditional hotel room, lacking air conditioning, making it uncomfortable and warm. Although the location was convenient, the small size of the room and objectionable odor were major drawbacks.

The hotel's location was really good for someone not using a car. It was in downtown, placing it conveniently between Nob Hill, Chinatown, Union Square, and the Tenderloin. However, the proximity to emergency response routes, construction, and noisy weekend activities made it less than ideal.

The hotel had clean rooms with okay beds, coffee making facilities, microwave, and a good shower, but the space felt a bit cramped for three people. The service was helpful, especially when I was sick, but there were mixed experiences with room changes. The location was near a nice area of town and convenient for visiting attractions, despite some safety concerns about the neighborhood. The dining experience featured home-grown products. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory, offering a 'family-owned' feel.
