10/10 Excellent
"Was nervous about my trip to San Francisco and wanted a good place to stay that was close to everything I wanted to see. Pickwick’s location was ideal for my trip, the room was small but had everything we needed (minus a microwave and fan). The staff was always helpful and helped ale our stay comfortable. Room was tidy and had everything we needed for the stay. Only thing I didn’t like was the old building smell."

"I had a wedding to get ready for and confirmed my reservation to be told to come back in an hour or more due to not having a room since they were very busy. Another person overheard and told the person helping me to give me my room. This was very upsetting especially since I had made my reservation months in advance and confirmed 3 hrs. before arriving."

"Great stay at the top of Nob Hill! My husband and I were tourists of SAN Francisco. The Hotel is located in a great spot for catching the cable cars to get around! We loved the breakfast even though it wasn’t complimentary it was delicious! However drinks were free with our room reservations. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Our last day there we wanted to tour a little more after checkout and they held our bags for us."
