The Pali was great value for money for our short trip in San Francisco. The hotel was walkable to lots of places - just a 25 or so minute walk down to the Ferry Building and walking distance to areas like North Beach. Just a few minutes from Union Square and lots of shopping. The room was small but comfortable and nicely designed. Not much of a view, but we weren't expecting one. The decor throughout is chic but cosy and a mix of old school glam and modern touches. The bar upstairs was very nice with friendly staff and good selection of drinks and food. We were really impressed by how good value the place was for being in central SF! We would definitely recommend it to others looking for an affordable option in the city.

The bathroom was poorly designed ( no shower door, a floating shelf that blocks the sink) but overall the room was serviceable. We were frustrated however that they threw on an undisclosed 30 dollar charge for booking with Expedia.

After staying at other well ran and located Pali’s this one was a bit shocking. The area it is in isn’t very safe after dark and sketchy at best during the day. ( pic attached of the area directly next to the hotel front door). I arrived to my room and within 5 mins the toilet backed up and it took them about 2 hours to handle the issue with little to no communication of what was happening and ETA on work etc. The hallway area directly next to my room (514) is a temp linen closet with workers constantly going in and out making noise. ( pic attached). The last straw for me though was when I ordered a lovely glass of red wine at the 2nd floor resto to take to my room and the bartender poured it in to a white paper cup saying they can’t let glasses leave the resto. I travel for work all the time and have never had that happen before. Insane. This hotel was a major bummer in all areas and has made me reconsider the Pali brand as a whole. I would avoid this property in S.F at all costs!

Our room was smaller than the pictures showed. Our tv didn’t work we let front desk know and no one came up to even take a look at. It was our anniversary and I’m 8 months pregnant, it was a little inconvenient.
