This is a charming, older hotel in the Lower Nob Hill neighborhood (at least that’s what Google maps calls it). Spotlessly clean and very comfy. Small kitchenette with mini fridge, microwave, sink and utensils. Plus a nice neighborhood market next door. And the almost new windows open for fresh air, although it’s San Francisco, so probably a little chilly most days. Great for those on a budget. Front desk folks are very helpful. Loved it…and the two elevators are a step back in time!

We loved the historic building and the location. It was close to everything we wanted to do. We wished we could’ve worked in the musical Hairspray but it was sold out on the days we were going to be there. The staff were great at the hotel. As an Elk Lodge member it was awesome visiting the Lodge and Bar.
