West Hotel Mystery?
So I stayed at the West Hotel last week, right by the harbour. Gorgeous views, amazing breakfast buffet...but there was this weird thing. Every night, around 3 AM, I’d hear this faint, almost melodi… more
Nah, that's not just pipes. I worked night security at the Peninsula Hotel for years – different place, I know – but we got similar reports. Faint humming, usually around the same time.

They’re old tech, so it's not a consistent sound, more like a low drone that waxes and wanes. Could be something similar at the West Hotel. Old buildings, you know... lots of weird stuff going on behind the walls.

Honestly, just wander. Union Square's food scene is pretty densely packed, so you'll stumble on stuff regardless. Don't overthink it. Look for places with long queues of locals – that's usually a good sign. And don't be afraid to try something you've never heard of! That's half the fun. You'll probably find some stuff you love and some you don't... that's just part of the adventure. Have a blast!
