Great location, right around the corner from China Town and very near the high end shops, walking distance to Moscone Center. Pretty old building and does not have the amenities you would find at the more mainline hotels. Elevator is old school with the double (inside cage and outside glass) sliding doors that you have to open yourself. Kinda quaint unless you are trying to do it while wresting with your luggage. Watch your step when exiting because it doesn't always stop even with the hallway floor. I didn't interact much with the reception/security folks but what little I did they were friendly and helpful. Room 424 was clean however the floor slanted so when you get into bed or try to sit up against the wall the bed would roll across the laminate floor and leave a gap between the head of the bed and the wall. Shower is a claw foot tub with two shower curtains around it on a pipe. Probably not bad if you are a thin person, however the curtain kept sticking to my body when I was taking a shower because it was so closed in. Room was half the price of the rooms at the mainstream hotels, not sure it was half the value but pretty close. Doubt I would stay here again if I am back in SF but all in all not a bad place, just not really for me.
