"Overall it was a good experience. Met good people. Staff is friendly. Breakfast was a bonus, waffles are great, but there are other healthier choices. If you are not gluten free, you gotta try the waffles at least once. My room was off the main street O’Farrell and it can be noisy at late night for a short period."
