The photos of the hotel are not accurate. The rooms do not look like that at all. Absolutely filthy conditions in the room and in the bathroom. Beware they charge you a $20 deposit when you get there. When I went to check out early in the morning, no one was in the lobby And I had to leave. So I did not get my $20 back. The sidewalk outside of the hotel is packed with homeless people with trash, The and urine everywhere. Dirty bedding, holes in the walls, terrible odors throughout the entire building. Do not stay at this property!

I stayed here for Folsom Weekend. I made it to the hotel around 6:30pm & my room still wasn’t ready. There was no nearby parking & the entrance was blocked by homeless people. The pros of this hotel: close to public transportation, lots of things in walking distance & if you’re in town for Folsom Street fair it’s walking distance. I go to 24hr Fitness & there was a gym within walking distance. Cons: No guests, I was not informed of this “rule” until the 2nd day of my stay. Again, I was in for FSF weekend so this added a damper. Homeless people, the perimeter of the hotel is blocked by homeless people which is intimidating & made me feel unsafe at times. Shared bathroom, the bathroom at the end of the hall of the 3rd floor was terrible. The outlets didn’t work, the toilet is extremely close to the shower & there was no one to but my toiletries. Can clearly hear neighbors, the way my window was positioned I was about to hear my neighbors conversations as clear as if they were speaking directly to me. Dirty towels, my towels were dirty & had black spots No ac No extra lock, there’s no extra lock attachment No parking No rack to hang towels, they provide a sink in the room but there’s nowhere to hang towels or clothes No one replaced my trash during my 4 day stay

The bed was okay, the room was clean and secure. The front desk guy was so nice and helpful. Do not expect any extra amenities and the bathroom is shared. It’s like a well kept hostel with private rooms. Oh there was cereal and toast and coffee in the morning so that was neat.

This is as best as you’re going to get in San Francisco in summer peak tourism with privacy instead of a hostel. The only drawback I see is there’s only a fan so if it’s one of those rare once a year 100 degree days in San Francisco you’ll be hot as the room is already warm at night which most women would probably like but guys will heat up. You have to park a mile away unless you want to pay $31 a night at the garage next door. Theres no private bathrooms but that wasn’t an issue for me

Pros: This place is cheap Cons: The place is noisy, the neighbours are laud. A lot of strange people stays there. Restroom is on the floor, not at the room. The surrounding area is filled with homeless, I do not think, it is safe at night. So you get what you pay for.

The staffing had excellent manners and even canceled the $100 deposit to get us to stay there but everything else was terrible! Dirty sheets, the whole floor has to share a bathroom and when I got back to the room after a few hours out, my window was left open from someone breaking in while I was out.

The lady on reception was lovely, unfortunately it’s the only good thing I can say about the place. The location is terrible, so many homeless people in large groups outside made it feel very unsafe and I can’t even describe the smell. I had to get taxis straight from the door to where I needed to go, luckily it was only for one night. I suspect the homeless are using this hotel as it’s so cheap. They are either partying or arguing in the corridor until at least 4am. It feels very unsafe, I didn’t sleep. The room itself came with dirty bedding, bath sheets and a horrible smell. HONESTLY PLEASE pay the extra and go somewhere clean, safe and comfortable. I waited until it went quiet in the corridor and left as soon as I could in the early hours.

The property is not in a very good location there were lots of homeless people in the vicinity so at night it did not feel safe. The hotel itself was not great the towels although were clean were dirty looking. We had our own bathroom and although it was clean it wasn't great. The window looked at a brick wall and other rooms it was incredibly noisy at night either other residents or neighbours but the noise went on loud music and shouting until about 3am and then started up with banging doors at 6am. We didnt pay a lot for the room but it was very badic.
