It is clear that the only reason a hotel such as this can continue the way it does is due to its location. The Mission is a brilliant place to stay whether you keep it local or explore the whole of SF. Now that I have mentioned this hotel's single redeeming feature, I can happily reveal that this truly is... More

Unlike everyone else I didn't find the staff rude, they were very friendly. But it reeked of detergent so strongly it made me sick and the heat was so high, and the smell overwhelming I had to leave my door open to breath. We left window open but it was in the mission so it was far from quiet. I... More

I booked it on the internetto spend a weekend during a business trip in the Bay. I wanted something cheap (130$/night) for San Francisco standards and I got something cheap. Staff is not properly friendly, and rooms are not comfortable, you have TV though. Bathrooms are shared and some are clean and some not really. It is in the Mission... More

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HELLHOLE. I booked late on returning to here from my first leg. IT is overpriced, airless and disgusting, and the people who run it should not be allowed near a hotel. Rude, inconsiderate and ignorant don't cover it. I looked at the 'rooms' and after explaining my displeasure we left. needless to say a refund... More

Had to stay here because nothing else was available. What a pigsty. Absolutely horrendous. There was a prostitute next door...the toilet and shower had to be shared...NEVER told us this. Would not give our money back. The prostitute smoked marijuana and it filtered into our room...there were roaches in the hallway...it was just bad. The area was ok....so we only... More

We got to the hotel after a long and unexpected trip to San Fran and was one of the only hotels open and with vacancies. We actually really enjoyed this night and all because of the lovely receptionist/owner. A lovely indian woman who was very welcoming and gave us a good rate and a nice room. We had a comfy... More

Easy to find in San Francisco's Mission District. Not a bad part of town. Artsy, hip, young. The hotel rooms are small and simple -with a Hawaiian theme. There was a tv, and free wireless interenet access, but no air-conditioning nor a phone. The windows did not have screens. I was hot, but a bit nervous to open the window... More

The 80$ room is tiny, the towels are small and the place stinks. But my complaint is the service, specifically the woman that runs the place. In the morning, before checking out, I went for a walk. It came to 1045, I was 30 minutes away, and I didn't know what time check out was. I called, she said 11,... More

I have stayed at the Tropicana for the past several years. It is definitely gone down hill from then. The hotel is dirty and falling apart. Each time I travel to San Francisco, I make it a point to stay here because of the proximity to friends in the Mission but I will never stay here again. There was mold... More
