The city views from the room are amazing. The beds and linens are very comfortable. The bathrooms are clean too. The only downside is there is no sound proofing. We can hear the footsteps/movements from the other rooms.

Great hotel and views! All employees were nice and make you feel welcome. Room service made the bed while we were gone exploring which is a plus. Only negative was that I wish I would have know that you have to pay to park which was $45/ day.

Shameful from the hotel to ask to pay for early check in fees to people arriving from long travels even when they agree the rooms totally available! $35 per room! We had 4 rooms reserved for 3 night! We arrived at 1pm and they asked us to pay for early check in fee if we wanted the rooms at 1pm! We had to go to a restaurant and come back at 3pm… for time ever that this has happened to me in all hotels around the world The property is clean and nice. Around the side streets to the property hundreds (maybe thousands) of homeless people majority of them under influence of drugs! But that is not an issue of the hotel that inside was very safe but that is an issue of San Francisco downtown that seems to have become a after war destroyed city. So many stores closed all Around ! Shame to the administration of that once beautiful city! The city is lost ! It will take decades to clean up and bring back to the beauty that it was years ago! The hotel anyway inside is nice and clean and between the various hotels of the areas at rosetta they were able to keep safe the front of the building entrance where rarely to see homeless! Uber to go around is more or less a must as waking in downtown SFO is really unsafe!
