I mentioned this to front desk. The shelf over the small sink needs to be moved or cut back as it makes it very hard to use the sink. Other than that a great price for a great location. V clean. Friendly.

We Love Pali-Everything
We absolutely love the Pali world. We are life long fans and will always book with them if they are in an area we are staying in. The attention to detail, hospitality, and comfort is unmatched. They make you feel like you never left home. We have stayed at Palihotel SF several times and loved it every time. The only reason we rated lower (4 star) for this particular stay is because the 2nd floor bar was not operational which is a favorite feature for us. There was also wild protests that woke us up at 7am every morning. Definitely not something Palihotel had any control over but it dampened the experience significantly so it is worth noting.

Really unique property, love the period design details. Room was nice and comfortable. Windows were relatively thin so a lot of noise from the area can be heard at times. Staff were friendly and quick to support any needs.

Palihotel staff were great and the hotel itself is beautiful. However, there was a protest right outside our window (banging drums, playing loud music, screaming into megaphones) in front of the neighboring hotel that started at 6a and went on for the rest of the day and then started back up again before 6a the next morning. I was not able to get any sleep and feel sick today. I absolutely believe in the right to protected activity and empathize with the hotel workers, but it was a rough night due to the extgremely loud noise. :(

Wonderful staff. Unfortunately, unfortunately, our air conditioner was not working when we checked in, we called down to the lobby and a staff member promptly arrived to help us move rooms. The property is very clean and safe. Hopefully a restaurant will open up again, but in the meantime, coffee is supplied every morning free of charge on the second floor. This is an addition to the espresso machine in your room!

The staff was great, particularly Rachel and Lovely. The location and condition were also great. My only issue was the sink: It was tiny, and the shelf above it made it difficult to use. Otherwise, I would recommend this hotel.

Great place, good location. There was some noise nearby, unrelated to this hotel. Striking hotel workers were banging drums nearby, demanding better pay, as they should. Would stay here again.

Disengaged staff and lacking natural light
I've stayed at several Pali locations, most recently in LA. This property is dark and lacks natural light. Some of that can't be helped. The staff was utterly lacking in customer service or caring for that matter. When I asked for a couple glasses I was told to us our coffee cups. We asked for a couple coffee pods, we were told housekeeping wasn't in and they would send some up, they never arrived. Feels like something the front desk person could have handed out from a drawer and made that easy. Overall just lackluster experience, staff just didn't care and couldn't be bothered.
