We stayed here for one night. It was very clean. Not much light from outside. Felt cramped in room. But very good location and price. We stayed at the Casa Loma hotel down two blocks and preferred their full bath rooms over the metro due to light from outside and size of room. But if you are staying in this... More

We were referring to this hotel because it was nearby to our friends, who live off of Alamo Square. First, this hotel is a great value for the money. It is clean and our room was not crammed. The rooms do not seem to be huge - nor would i expect them to be for the type of hotel and... More

Wonderful staff & great location. Nearby buses can take you anywhere you want to go. I recommend the bus pass & download a Muni app for schedules & bus locations. But I digress, the hotel is super clean & super affordable. Rooms are cozy but comfortable. Definitely recommended!

Found this gem through the recommendations on Trip Advisor. This is not the place for you if you want to do all the "touristy" spots on the waterfront/Union Square, unless you are comfortable with the use of public transportation (ie:busses). The rooms are very small, but so is the price. I had ignored the street noise warnings on Trip Advisor... More

If you like to get around a strange city on public transport, this location cannot be beat. Buy a bus pass and you can get around San Fran from almost outside your doorstep. Once you get the feel for the city you will realize how many places you can even walk to. I would suggest checking out the direction you... More

This hotel is great! It's in a nice location, with a yummy restaurant underneath on the bottom floor. Rooms are comfy, nicely decorated, and staff is warm and friendly! The parking situation is interesting. Supposedly guests are allowed to park at the DMV parking lot. When I called the front desk about this staff there did not know how to... More

Was little apprehensive given some of the reviews posted, particularly about the room and bed sizes. However, for us this was unfounded. We had room 109 which had not one but two queen size beds!!! The bathroom was spacious, extremely clean and had a fantastic shower. There wasn't a hairdryer in the room but I asked at reception and they... More

On the positive side and most importantly, the staff were very friendly and the accommodation was clean and tidy. Otherwise, the hotel was uninspiring. Our room was tiny and so was the bed. Unless you are small, you will not fit under the shower and if you try you will most certainly bang your head on the shower basket (which... More
