Quaint simple room with a window to let in the cool San Francisco air. Loved the history of the building. Located near many great places to explore just by walking. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was good.

We had 3 nights at this charming B&B. Friendly and helpful staff and a clean, comfortable bedroom. A continental breakfast is served, plus scrambled eggs and either sausage or bacon. Parking is available across the road in a parking garage at $40 per night and you can take the car out once a day. The cable car stop is literally at the end of the block and is great for getting to Fisherman’s Wharf. A short walk to China Town. The area felt safe around the hotel. We enjoyed our stay.

Disliked: Amenities
I stayed at the Cornell Hotel de France in San Francisco and overall had a nice experience. The room was comfortable and had a lot of charm — definitely a unique, boutique feel. However, it wasn’t quite what I expected in terms of amenities. It’s more old-school, so if you’re looking for modern extras or luxury touches, this might not be the place. That said, the location is decent and the atmosphere is cozy and quiet, which I appreciated. It’s a good spot if you value character over flash.

Lovely but felt more like a bed&breakfast than a hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was good, including eggs and sausages. Is not wheelchair friendly, otherwise is a cozy place located not too far from the main downtown shopping areas.
