Nice alternative to the big chains while in Union square
I normally stay at the big hotels while in San Francisco, Union square, but they were all sold out. This Kimpton property centrally located was a great alternative. I had the opportunity to have "club level" privileges,, and the snacks/drinks at happy hour and the complimentary breakfast (no hot items) were great.
Kimpton hotel employees are wonderful to interact with. The room was clean and decent. The hotel had an awesome stairway that reminded me of staying in my parent's house. The stairs would creak depending on how you walked on them and it put a big smile on my face. 
My only negative (which is not unique to Kimpton) is I don't appreciate having another charge on my credit card after I check out claiming that something was removed from the mini-bar. I declined taking the key when I first checked in.
