Cool decor, good location and friendly staff. The only comment is that it would be great if they provided a bottle like water or at least a water station where we can fill a bottle.

Clean, spacious rooms. Very aesthetic decorations, cute lobby. Really neat old style elevator. Walking distance to a lot of sights, very close to the Chinatown Dragon gate. Parking nearby, easy in/out system. Really nice 2nd floor bar & restaurant. Staff was very friendly and helpful with recommendations for the area! We enjoyed our stay!

8/10 Very good

Typical of Palihotels. It’s an old building remodeled with a new vintage aesthetic. Visually very appealing, however there are usually some issues that pop-up with an old building. Plumbing is an issue and the elevator is usually slow. That being said, the staff is great as always and the bar/restaurant is top notch. The rooms all have mini-splits so climate control is better than many typical hotels in the area. Location is great with parking directly across the street. Price was very reasonable for what you get. All-in-all I would absolutely stay here again. However, if you are planning on staying at any Palihotel expect an older building that comes with some sort of very slight complication.

Amazing vibe in this hotel. We loved the style and the unique touches - would look forward to staying in a Palihotel again in other cities. The toiletries are high end and the room was comfortable. Our room was toward the back of the building and was quiet. We also didn't mind the slightly slow elevator - it's from 1910 (safely updated of course) and the history of that was very cool! It's older even than the elevator in Coit Tower! The location was also convenient for transit and for picking up a rental car on one day. We were confused about some of the amenities, like whether there was coffee available in the morning or maybe a complimentary drink at the bar, and couldn't find the information online. We admittedly didn't wind up asking about it until our last day at the property, but it would have been helpful to be verbally informed of the options when we checked in.

6/10 Good

Bring a white noise machine! We had ours cranked as loud as possible so we were able to drown out the music blasting in the building next door/street level. There’s nowhere to pull up and unload luggage out front — you have to park in the garage across the street, walk everything over, and then check in. Staff is really great, property is small and old but really unique + lots of character. Worked for us as a single night stay, probably wouldn’t be comfy for longer than that

I just stayed for three days and had such a great time not only is the entire atmosphere so beautiful and the bed so incredibly comfy but the staff there is amazing. They were all so friendly and accommodating I loved them! Bar area is also SO pretty. The location is great also! Plenty of parking garages around and great walking distance for shopping and dining.
