The stay was great, the staff was excellent, however upon checking in we discovered a huge cockroach in our room! My wife is HIGHLY allergic to cockroachs so it definitely put a damper on our first night. Luckily the staff handled the issue in an acceptable time frame and we ended up having an ok time.

Small and uncomfortable. Great location.

Funky, old hotel in great location. No front desk personnel - entrance and room key all digital. We knew the room would be small but no lamps or reading lights - just an obnoxiously bright ceiling light. No air-conditioning - the room was HOT. No chairs or place to sit other than on the beds. And the TV didn't work - no internet connection. Overall the 2-night stay was passible but definitely not comfortable. Also, rooms on the Rush St. side are very loud - not recommended.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This spot is a total vibe! Best place for our first trip to San Fran. The check in & out process was so easy. We were on the 5th floor in a corner room. LOVED having the experience of the fire escape. The room was clean & ended up having a mini fridge. When texting the front desk for things, they replied immediately. The elevator was so cool! The bathtub was amazing! My only issues were - 1. the tv remote did not work. Probably needed new batteries, but we didnt try to watch TV until out last night so it was not a big deal 2. The bathroom sink, although I love "old" sytle, upgrading to a single handle with mixing valve so you can have warm water, not just hot or cold We loved out stay! Would stay here again.

Cool little hotel in the Middle of it All

Excellent location! Across the street from the Dragon Gate. Cool little hotel, very artsy as the name implies. These are basic rooms, very comfortable but a Victorian bathtub/shower. Perfect for our purposes but we only had the room to sleep in.

Good and bad

The electrocic/app key situation was problematic. When we tried to get it resolved, nothing came of it. There is no front desk person and the water took 10+ min to warm up in the shower one of the days. Rooms were super cute. The art was awesome and the bed was comfortable. The location was ideal and the downstairs bar was fun and friendly.

Great location.

Perfect location… across the street from Chinatown’s moon gate, located by several bars and restaurants. Easy walk to BART. Room was small but enough space for comfort. Bed was just ok.
