Great location, warn property
The staff was very service oriented, friendly and helpful. The property itself was a bit more warn and rugged than shown in the pictures and many of the reviews. The breakfast was very basic and the second morning was delayed by an hour and a half due to the fridge being out of order. Location was great very close to Union Square and all the high end shops.

I've stayed at Cornell numerous times, it's always been a pleasure. It's rich French history displayed everywhere was charming. My only complaint was I saw nothing in the booking process that Cornell didn't accept cash as a form of payment for the room.

They do store baggages before check-in and after check-out. Wifi is too weak. Even cellular data also not working. There is an amenity fee of $20/day. Deposits fee need to pay individually and takes time to get it back. There was a convention recently, so no homeless nearby. But after finishing the convention, there were many homeless nearby. Breakfast was good and interior also nice.

The hotel has a lot of character and is very clean. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The internet connection was a little bit of a problem, but everything else was great and I recommend this hotel to anyone who like to explore the City. Great location in walking distance to Union Square, China Town and financial district.

The property was fun and quirky. Just wish they had air conditioning in the rooms or at least allowed us to open a window. Staff was friendly and the free breakfast was good.

This hotel is walking distance to Chinatown and during the day, felt safe enough. But the walls are very thin! You can hear people walking and other things...I was surprised to see a few kids staying there considering how thin the walls are. The beds, floors, appliances...everything looks very old. Shabby chic? Nice breakfast included with the stay and friendly staff.

Wonderfully decorated. The people were incredibly polite and helpful. This nugget of heaven in SF will be a go-to when I’m staying overnight.
