“The hotel's location is ideal for convention attendees, just a short walk to Moscone Center. While the Mediterranean restaurant has appeal, some aspects of the property feel dated and cleanliness may be a concern. Its historic architecture, though reflecting a Neo-Gothic style, may not meet modern expectations for room condition and amenities.”

The location was central. it was near transportation, this made getting around easy. the staff were helpful. They assisted with directions.
The building felt old and showed its age. some remodeling seemed necessary. the room was hot upon arrival. The old ac unit took time to cool it down.

The street noise REALLY bothered me. Homeless people were yelling all night, a constant problem. The bathroom could have been cleaner. I saw some mildew in the shower. The bathroom was just too small for my taste.

convenient downtown stay
convenient locationhelpful staffsuper clean roomfriendly crew
The location was really convenient for getting around, especially with bart and muni stations nearby. the staff were very helpful. When my room faced a noisy street, they moved me to a quieter side. the cleaning staff kept the room super clean every day during my five-night stay. the restaurant right next door (zevi cafe bar) was also a plus.
the hotel is quite old, and the air conditioning wasn't very effective, so the room felt a bit warm.
Dining
9/10
Zevi cafe bar is located right at the corner and offers a breakfast combo. It includes several options, like a coffee and pastry, that will give you the energy you need for your day. the cafe has long opening hours, until 10pm, and offers delicious pastries and excellent coffee options.
Rooms
8/10
the room included comfortable temperature control ensuring a cozy atmosphere (even though the building is quite old). the bed was comfy, just perfect after a long day of work, and the room provided great rest, with minimal external disturbances.
Facilities
9/10
the hotel has two elevators, and one was under maintenance for most of my stay, so consider planning your transit beforehand. the central location allows super easy access to bart and muni stations (really close!) for swift transport all around the city.

The staff was accommodating when i requested a quieter room facing the alley. the hotel's location is great. It is near the cable car stop and a short walk to pier 1. i appreciated the proximity to the train station. It made getting to and from the airport easy. the restaurant inside was also pretty good.
The deposit policy felt a bit excessive. I found a $50 per night charge to be rather high.
