Good price, facilities and unbication. The staff was really nice. Simple room but clean and comfortable
The staff were fantastic. The property is older with loud plumbing and thin walls. Bath wouldn't plug and the showerakes a clunky sound when you use the cold water. The bed was like sleeping on a table with pancakes for pillows. Staff did get me a normal pillow.
Staff was courteous and helpful. The room is small but that is expected and it was more than enough for having a place to rest, wash up, keep my things while exploring SF. They also have a back room that's locked to store luggage and even a rental bike I had. There's a diner attached with a discount for hotel guests with pretty decent options. Everything was clean and well kept. I would return in future trips to SF.

Front desk staff is very nice and friendly. There is an odd smell in the hallways of the hotel, but wasn’t as noticeable in the room itself. There isn’t air conditioning in the room, but wasn’t a problem for me in May. A basic hotel without any frills, but a good deal for San Fran.
Great location. Room was very clean but it is an old building with old pipes. Very friendly staff with a great diner next door. Would stay again when in San Francisco.
Very friendly staff, especially lady at front desk during day shift!

The staff was friendly and polite. The hotel was basic didn’t even have air conditioning and the are was not a good area. If you want to be harassed by lots of crack heads take your chances. There is a reason the price is so low.

You get what you pay for. The room was clean and tidy, but very basic. The only big negative is that you have no control over heating and cooling in the room other than a ceiling fan. With the wide variations of climate in SF, I think this could be a problem at times. During my one-night stay, it was not.
