Pros

French balconies in all rooms with city views

Limited on-site dining options
“A boutique stay in downtown San Francisco positions guests near cultural hubs like the Asian Art Museum and Fisherman's Wharf. Complimentary wine receptions and a rooftop terrace add a touch of elegance, though the surrounding neighborhood presents a stark contrast with its visible homeless population. The hotel is pet-friendly and offers varied room options, including spacious suites, making it suitable for different travel needs.”
