The room was comfortable in size. One of the better hotel compared to some better known chain hotel. Complimentary coffee/tea, cookies and fruit available 24 hours is very much appreciated.

Comfortable and cosy environment. Staff is very polite. All enquiries and requests are promptly answered. The home-like breakfast is an excellent start to a day! The hotel's convenient location to food and sightseeing is highly recommendable to first timers to San Francisco, and at a reasonable cost too.

Happy with our choice after researching hotels along Bush St. Our room deluxe king is spacious, clean and well maintained.
Excellent location on Bush St, right on the edge of Union Square and Nob Hill, close to public transport, cable car, SFMOMA and Chinatown, and walkable to Embarcadero North Beach. It feels safe and away from the sketchy areas.

The hotel was a bit dated, but the staff were excellent. The room was comfortable. I especially want to thank Ms Rina Salangad and Sheila Curameng for their superb service. Overall, I had a good experience at this hotel.
