Upon check-in, we were provided a room where it was about 80 degrees with a fan on. In addition, to an unmade bed and iron board and iron out. The front door desk quickly reassigned us a new room. We were aware that the hotel has no a/c and we were fine with that. The room next to us was loud, laughing and talking so loud and playing music. I called front desk to complaint at 3:00am but it lasted until 5:15 am . Horrible sleep.

A great gamble

This was a long shot. Booking it on the plane while taxiing to the terminal. Kinda sketchy area but the place itself is lovely, the staff is knowledgeable and super friendly. Room was small but very comfortable and very clean.

Very friendly helpful staff

Hotel is in a great location but has loads of homeless people outside, rooms are a good size with TV, bathroom and coffee making facilities, rooms get very hot and there's no air con, there is a large fan in the room but very noisy so you have to open the window but you then get noise from traffic and homeless people playing music, the hotel supplies ear plugs and you will use them, only way to cool room down, rooms was visited by maid twice in my five night stay not sure what she did except replace towels, bar area is not like pictures on website anymore more like a shelf for coffee and water, which is always available, breakfast is coffee, yogurt and muffin, we went out for breakfast every morning, staff very helpful and friendly, would I stay again. No is the answer but it didn't spoil our trip, make sure you book room with AC because you'll need it ( Dec 2024 visit)

We enjoyed our stay apart from the sad sight of homelessness around the property. I hope the city of San Francisco can do something about it. Other than that we had great stay. Just make sure you use the fans and the earplugs provided for a good night's sleep.

Worth checking out

Good rate, small but clean room. Front desk service was very good, decor was nice, complimentary breakfast was sufficient, proximity to Union Square was nice. Pretty noisy. The street noise by the people experiencing homelessness was overwhelming at night. The 6th floor room became very warm but if you open the window, the noise was too much. Ear plugs helped while sleeping.

Nice place for a reasonable price, great location.

The hotel was fine for our stay. Nice location to the Warfield theater for our evening plans....a short 2 block walk. Lots of great dining options in the area. The desk agent at checkin was very nice and welcoming. The wifi speed was a bit sluggish and could be better. It was difficult to get regular television on the tv, possibly due to the slower wifi. Don't expect too much for the included breakfast and you will be ok.....coffee, apples, yogurt and small blueberry muffins. The price was right for a night in SF and would consider staying here again.

It was easy and smooth to check in, (loved the wine on arrival!), the staff was very friendly and conversed and checked in on me, especially punya! The rooms were a comfortable size with clean and modern finishes, I’m obsessed with the lobby decor with the gatsby style peacock doors and the bathrooooom 👀 I’ll definitely be staying here again :)

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
We stayed for 2 nights. Firstly when reviewing our stay it is important to separate what is in the hotel's control and what is not. The staff are welcoming, the rooms are minimalist but clean and comfortable, kudos on that. There is no operational dining facility, breakfast is snack like and no room service. The location is so close to the center of San Francisco, which is great. The uncontrollable relates to the location, the streets are filthy, with trash, homeless people on the floor and groups loitering. The outside noise is disruptive but also adds some entertainment. Overall, rooms cosey and clean, no frills services and tenderloin location. Expedia, this is a 3*hotel at best and am unlikely to return.

Nice ear plugs were provided, they were neede

The riom was small but clean. It was pretty noisy though, the street noise was constant. They did provide ear plug which was nice. Desk staff were all very friendly. Breakfast was very basic (yoghurt, muffin, apple, tea and coffee), the staff did tell us that at check in. Thry were happy to keep stuff in the fridge though if we wanted anything else (we bought milk and cereal for they kids, they were happy to store it and retrieve it every morning). Good for the price, I would stay again
