The hotel is right in the center of everything, just a few blocks off Union Square. The rooms offer great views of the city's skyline, accessible by elevator. They were very cold initially but spacious with a large wardrobe, though a bit of an odd shape. The service was top-notch, always friendly, and willing to assist with anything we needed, including organizing a taxi for five people with luggage. The location couldn't be better, excellent next to Union Square with plenty of dining, shopping, and transportation options nearby. The breakfast was amazing, with a changing menu daily, perfect for a week-long business stay. The hotel has all the necessary facilities to make your stay comfortable.

The hotel has a HUGE bedroom but the tiniest bathroom I have ever seen. It gets quite hot and stuffy as you are unable to open windows and there's no air conditioning. The smells tell you it's old, yet the location is incredibly hard to beat, being right downtown, close to everything in a super central and good neighborhood. However, being in the 'tenderloin' area and having to stay in a valet lot might not suit everyone.

The dining experience was outstanding with a great view and delicious food, but the practice of soliciting tips on a questionnaire was off-putting. The fish dish was a delightful addition.
