1. There were some glass shelves over the toilet, but I hate putting things on shelves over toilets for fear that something on the shelf will fall in.

"Boutique'y but not as charming as some of the other Kimptons in San Francisco " Read full review on TripAdvisor 1/2/2012 Vote

2. I just hate having to deal with room service or restaurants when I first get up; but frankly, there isn't much room for a machine.

3. I think the hardest things about this hotel is the paper thin walls (I am sure people hated being by us as well) and how hard it is to get the car from valet (we tried for an hour at one point and no one answered then when they did they said it would be another 20 mins for the car so we just took a cab).

4. It's unfortunate that this happened because I do like the Kimpton brand and do appreciate the customer service which is why I hate giving it a low mark.

5. Oh and the room was on the way smaller side which I am just putting out there because I know there are those out there who hate small rooms and they might feel taken due to the cost of the room for the price point it's at.
