7.8/10 Good! (466 reviews)

Staff was helpful. It’s an older building, so no AC, but it’s San Francisco so the climate is mild. Elevator is turn off the century.

9/10 Wonderful! (1,005 reviews)

Staff are lovely. The courtyard is a midcentury dream, and the pool is perfect for recovering from a show the night before. Rooms are basic but functional - appreciated the room safe, the charming zine booklet, noon checkout and red mood lighting (there's normal lamps too). Mattress was comfy. Tea and coffee in the lobby if you're coming in late is good. Neighbourhood is fine if you keep your wits about you.

I would remove the wood piece in the shower, it had mold on it and I have a mold allergy.

Peace Pagoda

Find out about the history of San Francisco with a stop at Peace Pagoda. Discover the beautiful sunsets and notable monuments in this vibrant area.

We saw two performances while we were in SF. During the first performance, we sat in the bench seating behind the orchestra called the "terrace" and this is a photo from the second tier seats. I highly recommend sitting in the terrace seats if you are not a stickler for acoustics. It is so fun to be able to watch the conductor's face and be so close to the musicians that you can follow along with their sheet music.
