Staff was polite and courteous. Complimentary sangria upon checking in was nice. Hotel itself was in good condition. Important parts of the room were clean: the sheets/bedding and the bath towels. The floor could have used a better vacuuming as there were visible crumbs or something at the foot of the bed, and there were greasy handprints on the exterior of the wardrobe and the inside of the bathroom door. It wasn't a deal-breaker so we didn't mention it (we were only there for a day and a half/two nights). It was within walking distance of The Dragon Gate and Union Square. I can't speak to public transit as we took Waymo or walked everywhere (walked to the SF Ferry Terminal and it took about 20 minutes). Overall a good deal and good location, room could have just had a better cleaning.

The hotel was stylish and in a fantastic location. The staff were welcoming and our room was lovely. Unfortunately, the shower was disappointing; the water pressure was weak and it didn't function properly.

When we arrive I was lost as to where to park and check in person came out to tell us how valet work or where we could self park. They honor our Expedia Gold with a complimentary room upgrade and waived or resort fee. The room was big and clean. The area is nice and walkable. We ate at Cesarios and Honey Honey Creperie and both were amazing, I would go back and stay here. Beautiful place.

Staff are friendly and welcoming but the area is quite unsafe and the staff aren’t very vigilant about who is coming in and out of the hotel and heading directly to the lifts. Hotel in itself is nice and how it appears on the website. Bar area is nice to sit in also. Overall we had a nice stay, just felt a little unsafe when stepping outside, this is no fault of the hotel.

Creative decor & super friendly staff. Gitanjali made check-in a breeze and automatically added our Gold member room upgrade and waived resort fee. She offered us delicious welcome sangrias as well. I was concerned that it was a little noisy (coming from a block or so over) while going to sleep, but it soon quieted down and I had a wonderful night of rest. I don’t fault the hotel for this. I would definitely stay here again.

Top notch hotel in a great location. I loved being within walking distance of the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit?) down at Powell Street Station. From there i could get anywhere! To Oracle Park, Fishermans Wharf, you name it. Plus there is a really cool old fashioned cable car that originates at Powell St Station and goes all the way down to the Fisherman ‘s Wharf area. Lots of places to eat and shop around the hotel. Drug store almost across the street. Lots of liquor stores close by. Car rentals nearby. You can catch the popular bigbus hop off, hop on tour bus in nearby union square. Everything u could possibly need is right around the hotel. The Hotel itself is AMAZING. Super friendly helpful front desk staff. Rooms are super clean and well appointed but i wouldnt say the rooms are big. Comfortable bed and pillows. Beautiful walk-in shower with excellent pressure and hot water. Room had a safe. And the clock radio doubled as a bluetooth speaker so you could stream your tunes thru it. Loved that. Excellent “Regal Beagle” lobby bar on the main floor, but not open very late. And they do have a happy hour. Really cool vibe to this place all around. Its themed around the “beat” generation. I found the music playing down in the regal beagle bar (i think its actually called “obscenity”) to be incredible. Lots of cool late 70’s early 80’s post punk. Fantastic decor in this hotel everywhere u look. And the staff was so friendly and kind. Especially Orion and Lourdes.
