    Nice for a fancy drink. Better for bottle service.

    Elegant, modern and uber-designed, this Phillippe Starck designed hotel is one of the hippest places to stay. Have a drink at or just peek into the Redwood Room, a classic bar with redwood paneling

    No free wi-fi in rooms or lobby. No coffee maker in rooms. You've been warned. Redwood room is definitely a cool place to grab a drink. But, be on the lookout for dirty old men

    Really bad door staff. Rude & inconsiderate. Seem to think they are better than everybody else around them.

    This place feels so sleazy. Can a hotel think it's so hip it doesn't need to offer service or comfort? Apparently so.

    Its 11pm and room service said they don't serve hot food! How do you say "stay at the monaco across the street?"

    The rooms feel like a 90s SF apartment my grandmother helped design. Bad curtains, old tiles, and a well-partied on carpet.

    This is hands down one of the worst hotels I have stayed at in the Morgans group. Room walls are paper thin, staff is rude and unhelpful, bar breeds douches. Stay at hotel vitale instead.

    It's full of prostitutes and terrible service. There is no good reason to come here.

    If bad service, nightclub lobby, bouncers harassing you when you try to enter, and paying ridiculous prices is your thing, then this is your place. #bad

    600 dollar deposit put as a hold on your bank account?! Never again! Don't stay at this hotel if you plan to have them charge your bank account "as a hold."

    Don't forget to peek under the big chair in the lobby. Don't be shy, just get down on your hands and knees.
