Rich character, great location, and upscale finishes.
Down comforter had large stain which appeared to be
stain which we did not notice until the next am. Was not visible due to sheets serving as duvet.

Good hotel, OK amenities, small rooms, and a staff that makes you feel guilty for asking. 4 star location, 3 star rooms, and 2 star staff.

Staff was very helpful in a variety of ways. The complimentary afternoon and evening drinks in the lobby.
In relation to sound, thin walls.

Overall, I would recommend this hotel. Staff was very helpful. We had a great view of Alcatraz and our friends of the Golden Gate Bridge. Loved the drinks and appetizers in the lobby daily and the hot cocoa on the chilly afternoons. The hotel was clean and in good repair. The building is old but all furnishings, TV, etc are new.

Historic ambiance, quirky nautical decor, and fantastic location.
A pushy housekeeper who knocked on our door to ask when we were leaving, twice, before check-out time.

Location was awesome.
The air conditioner for the conference center was directly below our room, was very noisy.

The hotel was very clean and comfortable.

The hotel and staff were amazing.
The walls seemed pretty thin. I could hear lots of noise in both rooms I stayed in.

Great place, friendly staff and perfect location. I plan to stay there again in the future. My only complaint is that I could hear a lot of outside noise and noise from the adjoining rooms inside my rooms especially at night. Overall, I enjoyed my stay.

Very classy hotel.
We were the youngest couple there (in our 20s) and the rest of the crowd had a snobby air to them.

Excellent hotel, great staff. Great location. Most people there are in their 40s + so it's kind of difficult to have a romantic evening at the bar if you are in your 20s.

I really liked how the building was all made of brick. Theme goes with the area.
