The staff were so friendly and helpful. I twisted my ankle during my trip and they went above and beyond to help me maneuver. Chris and the rest of the concierge staff at the front desk even called CVS and reserved a pair of crutches for me. Housekeeping also took great care of me. And as for the hotel itself, I loved the beautiful art deco style with a modern twist. I wish the restaurant had been open and it had some kind of live music but all in all, Bijou stays true to the boutique hotel experience. I was there for a conference nearby and I would definitely come back.

Overall, the property is a quaint but chic hotel. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and the room was exactly as described. The surrounding area is a bit sketchy. Unhoused people often loiter near the entrance of the hotel and play music until the late hours of the night. The hotel is within walking distance to multiple shops and public transport, which is a plus. So, if you’re a heavy sleeper and looking for an affordable place to stay, I would recommend.

I don’t know why, but the hotel always seems to be surrounded by homeless people. Also, the breakfast is very limited – it’s only yogurt, cupcakes, tea/ coffee, and apples with no variation each day. However, the hotel staff are very friendly and nice. Cleaning isn’t done daily, but they will take care of it for you only if you request it.

Wonderful hotel, horrible locale environment
The hotel seems to have been renovated completely sometime recently and the work was done very well. The hotel we did like alot. The problem is the area. It is near the seedy end of the tenderloin and the noise all night made sleeping very difficult. LOUD partying on the streets, extreme noise from either construction type activities....all contributed to a very bad night. The ned was very comfy, room was excellent, staff fine, downstairs area where people congregate....ALL excellent. We would have loved to give it at least a 4 or 5 but for the noise outside.

Comfortable Stay
Stay was comfortable. The area is full of homeless people which although we felt perfectly safe did lead to a lot of noise outside the hotel and a constant smell of weed. Some better sound proofing of windows could help. Beds comfortable and good amenities in shower. Breakfast was poor and limited. Having some bread and jam would of made it better and more appealing to those with dietary requirements.

New remodeled, still needs work though
The people who work there are nice.The area is a block and a half from very posh stores,but there are street people camped 6 feet from the front door.The area has a lot of homeless and drug users,but the nicer hotels also have to live with this situation as well.Our room issues... 1.no AC but appreciated the fan.Which also was used as white noise.2.The breakfast was barely continental-few yogurts,muffins,apples,bananas&water/tea/coffee so don't expect much.3.The noise on the street is loud and the windows are not thick enough to drown out the sound.4.Our safe did not work.5.There was a loud clicking sound from the bathroom that went on the 3 nights we were in our room.This was the electrical outlet continuously tripping-EVERY MINUTE FOR 3 DAYS&NIGHTS. We had to keep the door closed in order to sleep.6.The TV was very finicky and slow to change channels.7.The shower curtain was very damaged at the gromets on the bar.This should have been replaced by someone in housekeeping without someone complaining about it.8.We didn't want housekeeping and managed garbage/towel replacement with the housekeeper in the hall.However, we were notified that they were not going to clean our room anyway since we were not leaving.I know this is a policy some hotels have adopted since covid.It would have been nice to be told that at the beginning of our stay. After the first night of clicking sound,they did offer us to relocate however we already had unpacked. They offered us nothing as comp.

Loved the hotel and the staff were all very kind. Bummer not having AC but that’s known upfront. In order to stay cool, we had to have the window open and due to the location, there was a ton of street noise all night. Ear plugs are provided at least and we only stayed a night. The room was great and the staff were amazing, so we’d stay again and maybe bring some noise-cancelling headphones
