Some very harsh reviews here I don't get. Elevator worked fine, didn't smell anything foul... Big 'old hotel' lobby with wi-fi and great Billy Holiday era soundtrack playing (the sound system in the elevator, of all places, is awesome). Room was basic but clean, bed was firm. Coffee in the lobby and yes, donuts for breakfast aren't the best. If... More

This place was a perfect stay for me and my parents. We were in town for Bay to Breakers so the location of the hotel couldn't have been much better. All our basic needs were met. The room was cozy but totally enough space for sleeping in and taking day naps. We loved the style of the hotel. It was... More

The area next to the hotel is quite run down but it is conventient... More

Price was good for what you get, parking is an additional $25 a night in a location nearby. Right near the Tenderloin district so if you know San Francisco at all you know that you... More

I wasn't expecting much after reading all the reviews....but we spent $80 for a room here which was just ridiculous. 1. Room was clean, but the bathroom didn't work...and I mean, NOTHING worked. Toilet wouldn't flush. The trickle of water called a shower went from burning hot to freezing cold...nothing in between. Why did we pay an extra $30 for... More

rooms are quite bad and dirty. it stinked of smoke and the moquettes was really scary...too dirty.... bathrooms were awful and the building really old... anyway, the position is quite ok cos u can easily reach almost all the places in the city center on foot.

The first impression wasn't that good like it was on the internet. The room was smelly and the showers were't cleaned well. It is good for travellers on a budget but still too expensive because of: bad condition of the beds, noisy at day and night time from outside the hotel... and you don' t feel safe on the streets...
