Pro's: This hotel is a nice place to stay for your average (non-high maintenance) traveler. The most recent trip that I took to San Francisco was for a friends birthday and we stayed at the Adante Hotel for 2 nights. I've stayed here before and enjoyed the historic feel of the building and the different themes on each floor. The location is great, just a couple of blocks from Union Square and with access to the trolly's.
Con's: We booked the King size room for the sole purpose of the Jacuzzi tub (it was a birthday party after all)! After a long night of dancing we went back to the room for a soak at about 2am and began filling the tub up when we got there. We noticed that the water wasn't very warm, but we were willing to deal that. We read the directions for the jacuzzi which said to flip the switch on the wall to activate the jets and upon looking for the switch all over, realized... there wasn't one! We called the front desk and the gentleman told us that he couldn't leave the front... and also that he didn't know how to work the new jacuzzi's that they had recently put installed in all the king rooms. We were SOOO bummed, considering this was the only reason we'd booked the room, and finally decided just to get into our lukewarm "bath" anyways. :(
The only other bummer was that the few times that I had previously stayed at the Adante there was a great little coffee/breakfast shop next door that you could access through the lobby but returning this time I found that it had been replaced with a middle-eastern food restaurant. Just wasn't my type of food. Other than that, this is a decent place for the price.
