Well, I don't know where to start. First off, the hotel is beautiful and in a great location. However, my first two nights were spent in a studio which was ONE tiny room. The glass door (with some type of clouded glass and curtain) was right in front of my bed. I was scared. I was traveling alone on business, and I opened the closet door to hide half of the glass door, stacked my suitcase next to that, and then piled pillow on top of pillow to prevent anyone from peeking in. Now, I really don't think that anyone could have peeked in, but I was paranoid. Plus there was a window, but again, it had this weird glass and there was nothing but an alley with no light/ceiling whatsoever.
The rooftop was incredible. I went up there every morning for the continental breakfast. They also finally, after two nights, moved me up to a larger studio on the 8th floor (albeit I did have to pay more).
The staff was very nice. I did wonder about the security, especially since I went to the lower lobby one night to get a soda...and couldn't figure out what/who/what/why the club room doors were for.
The whole gaslamp area is beautiful, but it is full of homeless people. They really don't bother you, but again, being alone on business, I was sort of scared.
All in all, it is a beautiful hotel, although DO NOT GET A Studio on 204, 304, 504, 404 or 604. Other than that, I'm sure it is great. My new studio was actually two rooms with lots of mirros which were great to control my claustrophobia.
