Overall, this place is probably one if not the best wine/beer lounges in the city. Only reason to give it 4 stars is because I would say the food is a little overpriced but hey its technically in the financial district and anywhere there is going to be priced high for a reason.

The Front Room Lounge is the lovechild of a regular wine bar and a club, so it's name is very appropriate. This is an awesome spot to take a first date or long time love. Food - I don't recommend coming here for dinner because it's very overpriced for what you get. I recommend coming here before (or after) dinner at another spot on Yerba Buena Lane. If you're looking for a lite bite, the charcuterie platter is by far the best deal and most tasty option.

Not a great first impression... we got in at 11:00 pm from AZ and were exhausted and our room wasn't clean.... I called the front desk and no one answered for several minutes, (and I got to listen to the Disney pre-recordings several times saying how they take Covid and cleanliness seriously! - the irony) so I had to walk back to the lobby to get a hold of someone to get a new room. It's midnight now and I'm exhausted and frustrated!

The Anaheim Hotel reminds me of a vintage Palm Springs/Hollywood style hotel. It's an attractive spot due to its proximity to Disneyland and its ritsy charm, but the entire establishment is in need of a renovation. We stayed a few nights and it was definitely not the most comfortable arrangements you could ask for. I always saw landscapers keeping the pool and grounds fresh and tidy, but I rarely saw housekeeping, so it was a pain in the butt to ask for clean towels or a simple room clean. The paint in our room was peeling because there was no ventilation and as a result, everything stays

I'm leaving this review because of Karen at check in. Every time I come to the hotel she is smiling and so friendly. She really embodies providing the magic for guests. Thank you for all you do!!!

There is a certain amount of charm to this old place. It is not some giant sky scraping mega resort. The bones of the several 2 story bungaloes show their age. Sure, there have been some updates over the years. The lobby is very nice and quite clearly recently renovated. Its too bad the rooms have not received the same treatment. The rooms, while nice enough to sleep in, are nothing to write home about. The beds are soft. The bedding is fluffy. There were some tears in the fabric and even a light stain that I saw. The furniture was nice and smartly styled in a retro way that makes sense for when
