Gorgeous hotel in downtown San Francisco. Clean, front staff was courteous, efficient and friendly. Location is close to a lot of great destinations around downtown. One small gripe is the staff in the bar lounge area were definitely waking up on the wrong side of the bed. Got very nasty very quick for no reason, they apologized later, after i continued to be friendly, but it was too late - whatever, didn't take away from the hotel overall, definitely worth it.
