Stayed here for 3 nights and enjoyed my stay. Convient location 2 blocks away from union square, 7 min walk to china town, 10 min drive from pier 39. Very old hotel and extremely small rooms but you get what you pay for. Staff was really nice. Only downfall is our room didn’t have a fridge or microwave.

This property was amazing. The air conditioning was top tier, the room was clean, the staff were above and beyond but BE WARNED the parking is terrible. It has nothing to do with the Cartwright, and everything to do with San Francisco. Would 100% stay here again, but just make sure you plan out your parking in advance or else you will end up dropping $100+ for the weekend three blocks down.

Staff is very nice to accommodate a room change because it was so noisy. But then the second room had some heating problems. It is an old hotel that has bathrooms remodeled. But the ability to open windows also mean it is noisy.
