Reviews for the San Francisco Proper Hotel are polarized, largely due to the contrast between the high-quality interior experience and the challenging neighborhood environment. Guests consistently praise the hotel's design, the aesthetic of the lobby, and the popular rooftop bar, Charmaine’s, where staff members like Jose are noted for their excellent recommendations. However, a significant number of reviewers express shock and discomfort regarding the immediate surroundings of the hotel, describing the Tenderloin district as unsafe and distressing. While some guests report a seamless and comfortable stay, others have encountered frustrating service issues, including billing errors and maintenance problems with room climate control. Dining experiences are mixed; the rooftop bar is a highlight for many, but some visitors found the breakfast offerings to be overpriced and underwhelming. Ultimately, the hotel is seen as a beautiful, 'proper' sanctuary that requires guests to be mentally prepared for the reality of its urban location.
