Good rate for a very centrally located hotel but you do get what you pay for. Intermittent plumbing and elevator issues, no in unit fridges or really anything but bed desk and bathroom. Would stay again but probably not more than a few nights.

Choked in at 830 am early check in with great lady Thursday morning after running out of a Hole called The European. Only flaw of The Bartlett was low water pressure, but great Bang for your Buck.

Better than you think
I booked this on the basis of price. I was expecting a sub-par experience. I was very pleasantly surprised. Great rate in the heart of San Francisco. I was warned about the homeless problems in this area and while there was a bit of that, it was small in comparison to store owners cleaning the sidewalks in front of their stores. The room was small, for sure. But it had every basic that I needed. Also, the room was clean.

Good location, close to transport/cable. There’s not a fridge in every room, you can ask based on availability. Apart from that a good hotel.

Perfect for the price. They don’t clean your room daily. The front desk is only staffed on weekends, but they have someone at a nearby hotel that can take care of things. Very clean. Very quiet.

Had a great time sleeping here. The room was clean but the building was pretty old and a bit dirty. There were many homeless people around the area but they kept to themselves and respectfully asked for money. I would stay here again.

No frills, check in and front desk staff located in nearby hotel. Building is early 1900s, but with updates to important things like beds, bathroom fixtures. I liked the retro ambience and attention to the important stuff. Location is both good and bad: right near both the best and the worst of SF. This place won't suit everyone, but it's great value and I would be very happy to stay here again.

Stay here for the location, not the amenities
Book a room with its own bathroom, otherwise you will share a bathroom and shower with everyone else on the same floor! We were lucky enough to book one with our own en-suite bathroom. It had no hand towels or wash rags, just 2 bath towels and a bath floor towel/mat. The safe was locked and would not work. Maid service/turndown was not offered without booking it a day ahead and they charge $50 for this (ridiculous and predatory). Their 1 elevator was very slow and rickety, did not have faith in it being maintained recently. Would have taken the stairs if we weren’t on the 7th floor. The lobby looks like it was supposed to have amenities, but it was stripped down to just a few couches. Hard to reach the front desk if they are not attending it as they must buzz both doors 24/7 to let you in to speak with them if you do not have a room key. Saw multiple groups just sitting outside waiting for 10+ minutes at times for someone to answer the door bell/buzzer. Our room had a window that opened to a fire escape, the hallway outside our room had a window they’d leave open that also connected to the same fire escape (the room across the hall had a window that opened to the same connected fire escape as well). Was a little worried at night when we’d leave the window open that someone could come in from that connected fire escape. Only pluses to staying here is location and the bar/restaurant next door downstairs

This felt like the hotel equivalency of a ‘ghost kitchen.’ To check in, you need to go to a hotel around the block, and neither this hotel nor the other hotel have a way to hold onto bags before check in. During my stay I received emails/texts about the stay, two of which included “contact information” where the actual info had been left out of the communication. For example, I got an email that literally said “please don’t hesitate to call us at xxx-xxx-xxxx” and another one that said “you can email us at —-@————-.—-“ The whole experience was extremely impersonal, the amenities weren’t great, and it was very odd overall. Not worth the price at all.

Greeted by a locked front door that another guest who had key couldn’t open either. Had to go in through the bar only to be greeted by another locked door beyond which we could see an unmanned front desk. Found out from the other guest that I had register at The Stratford two blocks away. That was very slow as one employee was training. Ther was no room cleaning between my two days and never saw a staff person there. Other than that, the room was decent, with new bath fixtures, desk and fine bed. Great location and great price. And the bar is actually a good brewpub with first beer on the house for hotel guests.

It was the perfect low frills, low cost hotel for our conference at the Moscone center. Very easy walk to the convention center, surrounded by great Asian cuisine.

They don't have a full service desk that you have contact all the time. Be careful some of the rooms does not have shower or washroom in them. The hotel condition is decent but it is old and wear and tear. My room was facing the street which had a good view however the windows were not blocking the noise at all even though I was on the 6th floor. A homeless guy was moaning and making noise all night and did not let me sleep until 4am. Also I felt like I am sleeping on the side of road (because of car passing noise overnight).

No frills hotel in the middle of Union Square. Room was clean and maintained for an old building. It's a great place if you just plan on sleeping. I had a room with a private bathroom and it was great and clean.
