Liked: Cleanliness
Hotel was clean, but just older. Be mindful of location, but hotel is good about needing the room card to enter hotel or get buzzed in. Soma restaurant next door was good!
The room was great easy access we rented two rooms one of the rooms. The television did not work in one of the rooms. Rooms were clean restrooms were clean. Well kept employees were nice and attend. Answered all questions. Thank you.

Downtown San Francisco, crazy pricing but that is how it is. Room was clean, everything worked but WiFi was poor and needs an upgrade. All in all when at a conference at Moscone, its a good choice for a hotel - and a necessary cost.

Staff was nice room was clean. Close to transportation
We’ve stayed here twice now. The price is great for San Francisco. It is an older hotel. It’s a good location, close to public transportation and feels safe. The staff was helpful when our heater wasn’t working and fixed it right away. We’ll continue to stay here for the price and location.

Small 2 bedroom room. We thought we would get queen beds but found only standard -- maybe our fault. Staff was excellent, restaurant food was very good, room was clean.
We would recommend, at the price.

good place for the price
We've stayed here a few times because of the price and convenient location. The neighborhood is pretty scketchy, but the hotel is very secure and clean.
Front desk staff was friendly and welcoming. Room cleaning staff did extra touches during my stay I didn't expect. Location made getting around town easy. I'd come back to this hotel.
It's an old building and it shows, but overall great value for the convenient location and access to transit options. Bedding and bathroom were clean, and that's all I really need for an overnight stay in SF.
I like staying at the Pickwick because it is so convienient for the areas that I need to go... right on bus route 14. The cleaning staff were wonderful. The restaurant is good.
The hotel was nice for being an older hotel, you could tell there was some history there. When I arrived Jamil (sorry if I spelled that wrong) was great, friendly and he answered all my questions and was helpful and informative.
Staff were all very kind, thank you especially to the valet and the cleaning staff :) close to union square and convenient safe parking, room and hotel are older (est. 1926 i believe) but we were comfortable and cozy. We do wish the heat went up a bit more but that’s because we like to be toasty.
I would definitely stay here again. The property was very clean and conveniently located near the Powell bart station. There was a ton of food options nearby, I recommend Central Cafe and Hinodeya Ramen. The AC unit and thin walls were my only issues. Definitely an old SF boutique style hotel which is what I have learned to expect and enjoy when visiting the city!
