Horrible Experience.
I should have stayed at the Westin. Don’t recommend this hotel for those who are used to The Westin. Nothing was working, not even the heaters outside on the 4th floor then we get kicked out from the restaurant like some peasants because they had a private event. Horrible experience.

Lackluster service
The hotel itself is nice. Clean, smells lovely, a typical Curio collection hotel. Their downfall is the lazy staff. We had a very lackluster check-in experience, wasn’t told about the resort fee or hotel meal credits. Once in our room, we requested more clothing hangers and some other household items but never received them. I also text them at the 619 number, then text them though the app, and tried to call (was out on hold indefinitely so I hung up after waiting so long. No answer, no apologies from staff. Tried ordering room service—the phone just rang and rang with no answer. We stayed for 4 days. Everyday, as we left our room, the hallways were littered with carts and maids standing around, laughing & chatting. They

It was an amazing stay. Staff was friendly and very accommodating. The hotel was in a great area walkable to Little Italy and Seaport Village. We even walked to Gaslamp which was about 25 min walk. Great hotel! Would stay again.
